[Leica] a few birdies

[Douglas Herr]

Yes I have some regrets.  I still have a 280 APO which has not seen any daylight in the last two years, this will be the last Leica lens I'd let go of.  If Leica or one of the other L-mount partners were to make a native lens comparable in quality, along with some longer lenses I'll take a good look at the SL2.  I gave the SL and its system a couple of good tries and it didn't meet my needs.  Neither did the first-generation Sony cameras FWIW.
