[Leica] Wednesday Weeds

[Don Dory]

I find it impossible to use on an M as DOF is nonexistant and if the cam is
even slightly out of spec all you get is tears.  It also suffers from a
similar focus shift as you stop down as a Noctilux.  It is quite usable on
a mirrorless camera as you are focusing off the sensor.

I think it will get a lot of use this winter as I stay relatively close to
home.
