Re: [Leica] Lens Tests?

Hans,
Thanks for the reply, but, I have already done all the stuff you recomend.
Neither Erwin or Gandy assigns a number like was assigned to those lens on
your post. Being a car guy I can understand a comparison test where for
example the benchmark for performance is usually 0-60 and there is a number
to relate to, (0-60 = 4.6 sec). Gandy's information is pretty much all
heresay and MEGO (Mine Eyes Glaze Over) when I try to read ANYTHING Erwin
writes.
