So in the spirit of things I'd like to say that my favorite Leica lens is the one I need at any particular time in order to get the image I want! They say disagreements are what makes horse races, and such gentlemanly disagreements make for interesting reading. What I would like to know, when we expound upon the merits of our "favorite" lens, is what is the subject for which you favor that lens? What conditions make that lens a favorite? We have a world wide forum, with shooters burning film on thousands of subjects, each one with his or her own artistic or professional agenda- I'd like to know why you think a particular Leica lens is the best! At the moment, the best Leica lens is the one that works for me at any particular time, but then again, I don't have the full range of lenses at my disposal.... ( Please excuse any sexist connotation with my term, 'Gentlemanly disagreement', but I was reared to think that ladies, and particularly Leica Ladies, like Tina, are at all time agreeable, and never contentious!)
