But I do prefer very good lenses with character to near perfect lenses without (which is why I\'ll probably never own a 50 Lux ASPH, most boring lens ever made IMHO).
Heh. We may be kindred spirits on this - the 50 Cron has loads of character next to the Lux, but we\'d be pilloried for making such a statement in another parts of this forum. It\'s too bad I can\'t keep the character and get another stop.
The 50 Cron is also wonderful on the NEX, though f/2 doesn\'t seem quite so fast on this sensor.
I\'m not the biggest Leica fan in terms of rendering, but I agree on the 50 Cron. They\'re gems. I\'ve actually come to the conclusion that there\'s 4 M lenses I really do want to own at some point. The 28 and 50 Cron ASPH, the 35 Lux ASPH and the 90 AA.
Oddly, that would make a really nice NEX kit paired with a UWA of some sort (ZA E 14/2.8 Distagon ideally).
