I didn\'t really say \"contest\". I said \"compare notes on lens performance\". I mean, we frequently hear about that \"Leica look\". Well, I\'d like to see some consistent examples of that \"look\". . . we can compare a half-decent copy of EF 50mm f/1.0 against Noctilux.

Except I have not forgotten how much I disliked film. It is the \"immediacy\" of digital imaging that won me over back to photography.
How about a little photo spoof. The first image shows the \"Canon look\" (200 f/1.8). The second image shows that venerable \"Leica look\". See how excited the albino Peregrine Falcon is to have his picture taken with Canon gear(s).
(Now, I am getting ready for the Leica hit squad to come my way. )
