Subject: [Leica] 4 best and worst M lenses

I'd trade my first born puppy for a 21 JSK SA  true symmetric wide-angle
gorgeous compact chunk of glass. A reason to own a Leica M body if ever
there was one.
The 3.4 of course not that first out f4 which his nothing to write home to
MOM about.

A signature lens for many a photog.

That one guy who shot all the nudes of the gals in black and white
Jean-Loupe Sieff! 


And works great on an m8 despite early warnings.
I've seen the projected slides.
