I think if you judge most any leica lens by the pictures they take and not
by criteria we are constantly given by lens testers (not just at this site)
you might see the same with other "dogs" as well.

Bonjour a tous,

  My son turned 2 years old on august 28th.  We visited his grandmother for
supper, dessert was the compulsory cake with candle.  I took two shots
available light, Guillaume s face illuminated by one (shaped like a 2)
candle, his grandmother sitting, holding him in the background.  I used an
M5 and a Summarit lens wide open.  Shots turned out to be beautiful, a bit
of flare but focusing was right on his eyes, metering was perfect.  Now that
raises one question, this is such a gorgeous photograph...what s wrong with
my Summarit...isn t it supposed to be a dog?

  Regards,

  Robert (Un chevalier sans blason)
