I just don't understand that. You acknowledge that you can SEE differences in your Leica images, but all of a sudden a "lesser" lense on a digital camera gives you results you would be "happy with"? Something is amiss here... Sounds to me like you are lowering your standards...somehow...because it's "digital"? "Bah" (not baa...) I say!
