[Leica] The Bean Coffeeshop

Excellent image IMO.  I've had really good results from the 5D Mk II.  I 
need low light performance, and use 1600 and 3200 routinely.  I have 
various Canon L zooms, but covet the 24-105L and the 85mm 1.2.  A friend 
just bought the 85mm and it is great.  I'm probably going to buy the 
24-105 in anticipation of the Dr. Grant cruise to lighten my load 
somewhat.  The current versions of Photoshop and LR have the Canon lens 
profiles to take care of any barrel or pincushion distortion, so that 
should not be a problem.  At least they work fine with my current lenses.
