George that echoes my own reaction ;-) Tortured by thoughts that my
complete M outfit liquidated might fund a body and one lens....maybe. But
then I wouldn't have a camera that does everything else that the M does so
well. First world problem!
My intent posting the sample of course was to say never mind the maths,
this is what the best Leica system can DO. Also managing to not transgress
in this thread and expose myself to the master's wrath ;-)


Cheers
