Lloyd looks for different results from his lenses than I do and makes a big fuss about anything he does not like. He is also rather fonder of Zeiss than Leica IMO...

Sort of like 2 + 2 = 5.  For sufficiently large values of 2.

It does sound like a good lens. Though I can only read Lloyd's blog
remarks, the actual tests are behind a pay wall.  Seriously, does anyone
here actually subscribe to DigiLloyd?  His prices are rather steep, and
his content is divided into several categories, a la carte. "Everything"
is $360 per year. And of course, his Leica reviews are the most
expensive category.  But you can "save $95 per year" by subscribing to
everything. Geez, Louise, he must be valuable.  :-)
