While it may be a serious contender for long R glass; the results I've seen so far when using M glass, 50 mm and shorter, look horrible everywhere but the center area. I'd guess it's the lack of micro lenses - or at least lack of the "proper" micro lenses. Really wish it were not so. I'm hoping perhaps the tests I've seen are simply an anomaly. Yet it seems fairly obvious that Leica M cameras are optimized for Leica M lenses.
