Review 1 of 1

Price Paid:  $3800.00 from local camera dealer in germany

Summary:
Great for landscapes, people

Strengths:
-easy to use at all focal lengths
-down 1/60 sec without tripod no problem because of heavy weight
- excellent results on high resol slide film even at max. aperture
- I highly recommend to use this lens only in conjunction with a winder / drive: better balanced unit !

Weaknesses:
sometimes you donot want to carry it along because of its physical dimensinos

Similar Products Used:
none

Customer Service:
no experience regarding this lens sofar. In general Leica customer service is very responsive on problems / complains in germany
