Even if more and faster lenses are to appear later, starting out with f/4 gives off strange signals to the buying public if they later intend to compete with Leica M stuff by releasing f/2 and f/1.4 lenses. As it is, it seems like a WinCE machine: it tries to do everything (or at least, several things at once) and ends up doing neither particularly well. M. - -- Martin V.
