The beauty with Leica equipment is that at reasonable prices, you can
buy the lens, take photos with it, discover its personality, and if you
don't like it, sell it for what you paid for it.

The really evil part is to buy both, with the thinking that you'll sell
one of them   ;-)

Hello everyone,

As I've said sometimes I'm not interested on the Summilux because it has
one stop more than Summicron, the only point I'm interested is of this
"personality". I've read that at F2 Summicron is better, that at 5,6 are
similar. But nobody has already talk me about the mentioned
"personality" , or fingerprint. In other words, colours and or black and
white gradation, subtlety, differences in capability to isolate the main
subject., these are the important points for me, and I'm not discussing
for the perfection, I'm discussing about the impression that this lens
could give.

I ask this question because I have a reasonable offer for a Summilux 50
(E46), and I don't know if it paid's invest .., or burn the money on it.

Thanks for the opinions

Saludos desde Barcelona
Luis
