As far as I know, there are no *bad* ones. A new user has nothing to fear in choosing any reasonably recent lens made by Leica. With Nikon I hear about all sorts of lenses that we are warned to stay away from. A friend asked me about the quality of 35mm Nikon lenses. Well, is it the f2.8 (not so good), or the F2 (very good), or the 1.4 (don't really know) etc.? I never remember and have to keep reference guides close at hand. This isn't necessary with Leica.
