You have to remember it is not a Leica lens, hence it is not a substitute for any current Leica lense. I've had both the S/A f4 & f3.4. While I can say it outperforms the f4 with confidence, I can't say as much when it's up against the f3.4. The vignetting is very well controlled and the contrast is better than any "period" lens it replaces. As far as sharpness goes, Im' still working that out. I'm wondering if maybe this is an optic that needs to be mated to an appropriate film emulsion? My results with Neopan 400 & 1600 have not yielded prints that are satisfactory, i.e. within my standard parameters. I'll be trying that Ilford deltoid next to see where it takes me.
