Hi everyone,

I know it is a tired topic for many of you, but I'd like to hear other =
user's opinions on this lens.  I am having some difficulty making up my =
mind as to whether I like this lens or not.  I've been using my CL for =
some time now and I've never gotten an image from it that could compare =
with some of my best Leica R 35mm summicron images.  I suppose I would =
like to hear support for the 40mm summicron-C, and that the problem lies =
somewhere else.  Otherwise I might enter the market for a used 35mm =
summicron.

I'd appreciate some help,

James Burris
