I see from kylecassidy.com that you live in Philadelphia. For some reason I
had it in my head you live in NYC. Apologies.

That 20mm f/1.7 is one stunning looking lens with what appears to be a
substantial fan base already. If you combine the GF1, the 20/1.7 and the
45mm Leica lens they're sellling, you've got a sort of
apocalyptically-improved version of the 1974 CL, 40/2 Summicron and 90/4
Elmar, which together were a set.
