I agree there, I once tried my 90 Apo Summicron on my CL, and it was at best a hit-or-miss proposition. > If you check the archives, you will also > find that I recommend against using the Leica CL in general because it > is your basic pooch for a lot of reasons which I will be happy to > discuss off-list. I violently disagree there. I have been using my two CLs more than my M-cameras in the past few months because of my weekly trips to Spain and the need to travel light, and I definitely do not consider them pooches. Sure, when I go out on weekends or do not need to travel light, I much prefer my M6 and M7. But the CL is a very good compact camera, and I have the pictures to prove it.
