I have not felt the need to perform a direct comparison of the two lenses. Both are very sharp wide open with perhaps a slight edge to the ZM 35f/1.4. I prefer the ZM's bokeh, but for a 28mm lens, the Q's bokeh is exceptionally good. The Q's true focal length is around 25mm, which leaves room for software correction of distortion. Even corrected, I think that it is slightly wider than 28mm.
In my mind, the Q and the SL serve different purposes. The Q gives me outstanding IQ and wonderful ergonomics in a small package, while the SL provides greater versatility in a significantly larger package. When I want to travel light, the Q is what I take, but when I don't mind carrying a bit more kit, it's the SL with two or three (at the most) MF lenses. As to the difference between 35 and 28mm focal lengths, it's large enough to matter to some people. I guess that I'm one of them. I do not own any of the Leica 50mm lenses, as I am very happy with the CV 50f/1.5 Nokton VM, which I believe can hold its own against the Lux 50, at least in terms of IQ.
I have to tell you that this image is one of my favorites I've seen. There is something magical about it. As I was scrolling through all the great images I got to this one and couldn't take my eyes away. Perfect!

I really like this image! One thing that came to mind was cropping the picture such that only the legs of the crow showed along with the legs of the person (this said I suspect doing so would crop too much of the bird out at the same time). Allen, thoughts?
Thanks It what it is and the way I see so enjoy it as is.
I love this quote by Weston:
"Then so called “composition” becomes a personal thing, to be developed along with technique, as a personal way of seeing." - Edward Weston
