They are all superb lenses - very comparable to Leica's optics. The G2 camera is so different from the "M" series cameras, that you really shouldn't compare them. I like the Contax "G" cameras. but many people don't - it's a personal thing. You need to live with the camera and use it for awhile to become comfortable with it. - JB. > -----Original Message----- > From: owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > [mailto:owner-leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us]On Behalf Of Five Senses > Productions > Sent: Wednesday, February 25, 1998 4:20 PM > To: leica-users@mejac.palo-alto.ca.us > Subject: [Leica] contax g2 lenses - comparable to Leica M? > > > I was wondering if anyone had any experience with the Contax G2. > It seems to be a very cool little unit, and I understand that the Zeiss > lenses are equal in quality to the Leica M lenses.
