Leica seems to be very careful in whom it gives test cameras/lenses to, in order not to take risks in the news flow, and keep it unfailingly positive! Edwin Puts is by no stretch of the imagination an independent reviewer - how do his views matter at all, because even if he is right, how do we know that it is so? Not worth reading at this present time - maybe later for an insight or two after reading a few independent reviews.
