This image was captured at F/2. I love to shoot this lens wide open--I really do. But, there is something about how this lens performs at F/2. I never really brought into the mythological "Leica Glow" until I shot this lens at F/2. This is not a Leica lens, but if I ever had to attribute magical properties to a lens, it would be to this lens. This is absolutely the best 35mm Lens I have ever used, and Yes, I do own the Leica 35mm, version IV, King of Bokeh, the Zuiko 35mm F/2, and the Nikkor 35mm F/2! Now How Insane is That?
