Subject: RE: [Leica] Leica 280 2.8 versus Canon 300 2.8, a challenge(?)

This is a little unfair.  The one on the right will of course look better 
since it is taken in direct afternoon sunlight.  The shot on the left is 
somewhat underexposed, and is taken in flat lighting.  If the shots were 
identically lit I seriously doubt you could tell the difference on a 
computer monitor, if at all.

A more valid test would be with identical subjects shot at identical lens 
settings, and using tripods.

Best wishes
Dan
