It is somewhat difficult to use with the M since the size of the image in the viewfinder is so small but it is quite usable. As far as the lens itself, I find it to be a fine lens. It does not have quite the contrast or resolution as my Canon 135 2.0, but it is close. The differences are only of concern to one who is really picky. Tom Shea << So . . . what's the deal with the 2.8? What is the general opinion of this lens. Is it worthy of the Leica name? (I get the sense that it isn't completely up to par with the classics) Is it a performer? Sharp? Contrasty? Does it produce pleasing images? >>
