Subject: [Leica] 24mm - too close to 28mm?
From: mark at whitedogs.co.uk (Mark Pope)

Dear Luggers,

I wonder if you you can help me?  I like the look of the new 24mm lens 
that Leica have just released.  Finances permitting, I wouldn't mind 
getting hold of one later on in the year.

It would be used mainly on my M8.  I also have the 28mm Elmarit - a lens 
that I really like and get on with very well.  My question is whether 
you feel 24mm is too close to the 28mm?

Any thoughts / advice would be appreciated, as well as any experiences 
with the new lens.

Thanks.

Mark

P.S.  Happy new year to everyone!
