Marc,
In many ways I must agree. But wouldn't you give the nod to Leica R over
Zeiss Contax lenses? Generally, I would. I don't think any whole, entire,
comprehensive lens line in the world can match Leica R, in toto.

(Of course the most perfect set of connoisseur lenses ever made are the
Biogon-Planar-Sonnar 28-45-90 for the G cameras. Too bad the darn things
don't attach to better cameras....  ;-)
