I do like to take pictures in marginal lighting situations, like pubs, and during the winter in Northern Europe, light conditions are quite marginal even outdoors during the day. Since switching to Leica in late spring, I am finding myself shooting the various lenses at full aperture quite frequently. This is part of the Leica attraction, to be able to shoot at f2 or f1.4 or now f1.0 with full confidence.
