Hi Dan,

Until I joined the LUG club, I didn't realize there was any difference in
Leica lenses.  I have the 35 1.4 Summilux which I've used since 1967 when I
purchased it and never knew there was any different look and was always
amazed at what I got wide open and looked cool as 16X20 prints! :)  B&W of
course. :)

So in some ways being a LUGGITE spoils the innocence of using Leica. What
you don't know dosn't hurt you, but then you find out you can look even
better on the LUG.  Well OK the lens can improve the look of the
image....even if the content is still lousy! :)
