The first time I used it, I expected it to be a mediocre lens because of its relatively low price. I was surprised by the good contrast and signature. Looked sort of like a digital print with respect to being lucid.

Today I finally had an opportunity to print several rolls. Well I expected this lens to be better than my 40 year old Elmar but I was amazed to discovr just how much better this lens is! Great contrast, fine detail, creamy bokeh and collaspable too! Regards, Greg _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
