It's not a rangefinder camera. But to be a bit harsh I'm going to have to say that "alternate" shots of the trucks with not the grill in focus but the windshield are in my opinion not alternates at all but obvious failures. Not having the grills in focus is plainly annoying. Why have those in there? Is this where the camera automatically focused at? AF issues! Who the hell cares? Perhaps if you brought your Noctilux along as well and gave us a comparison to look at of the same shot....we could compare bokeh or what ever the hell. I have no patience at finding myself looking at Canon EOS micromotor CPU baloney photography. It's the opposite of what Leica is all about. The antithesis. Looking out your "Available darkness" site i see you've got lots of cameras to play with Colin. I'd master the use if one of them. Your "Alternates" show us you've not come close to mastering the use of your EOS. Available darkness photography require the intimate awareness of every nuance of ones specially selected equipment. It's not about playing around with a bunch of different cameras.
