I suppose there could be places that might take unkindly to it if they noticed the slight bulge! :) It's quickly available from there and you can go almost anywhere and not have anyone realize you have a camera at the ready. The 35 1.4 Summilux without shade makes it very comfortable and compact. It can be out and a shot taken, oops:) excuse me, a photo taken before anyone knows you've done it. And you don't have to pull it out or return to a pocket. you just let go and it drops back into place hands free. ted Ted Grant This is Our Work.
