[...] First a useful comment: I have the 75/1.4 and _love_ it. I suspect that you'll hear this a lot.... Second, a question: I'd love to hear a description of how the results you got with your nikon differed from the leica? Were they rangefinder vs. SLR things (small, quiet, subtle vs. big, clunky, intrusive) or metering/exposure things, or lens specific stuff? I have a fuzzy memory that there are folks on the LUG (B.D.?) who think that the [or some version of the] Nikon 85/1.4 is a wonderful lens with many similarities to the Leica 75/1.4. I'm curious how your results differed. And yes, I do complement my M6 with a Nikon N90s and manage to find interesting uses for both. g.
