[Leica] New Lens

[Don Dory]

Hi Jim,  Just a point choir high resolution sensors such as you have;
generally you are losing sharpness to distraction past f8.  Generally
speaking especially with a wide angle you will get crisper images holding a
larger f stop especially with Leitz lenses.  Definitely something to ask
the engineers while we are in Wetzler this October.
