Damn and it is one of my favourite M lenses as well. I guess I will 
have to sell it as the photos must be crap even though they look very 
nice indeed. Oh my gawd, what about my 15 and 21!!

Now don't get all upset.  I wanted a 24 mm M lens, but the wife choked when 
she saw the price. ;-)  Then I found this R version on the e site for about 
a 
quarter of the price.  She liked that much better.  So that is what I got.  
Then I convinced her I needed a new R8 (well a demo) and picked that up to 
keep 
the SL and R4SP company.  ;-)  Now I'm working on a new/used/demo M to keep 
the 
M6TTL company.  ;-)  One good thing about the unpopular R system is that 
used 
lenses go for a song, and the quality is every bit as good as the M lenses.  
Yes, I know this is blasphemy, but I love them just as much as the M lenses. 
 
As it worked out, the R8 and M6TTL were the perfect pair for the trip.

Now when are we going to see some shots with the new 50/1.4 Asph?
