Alas, It Was Not Meant to Be

This very nice image aside, the Leica 75 APO-Summicron 2.0 ASPH lens I bought yesterday was a disappointment. I took it to a great Leica repair expert and he found no issues with the rangefinder or the focusing. But something wasn’t right. It was a used lens. Sometimes you win sometimes you lose. Back to the store it went. If I ordered this lens from B&H new I’m sure it would be stellar. It’s just that this one wasn’t. I’m kind of crushed, actually. Oh well. Sure does make me appreciate how fortunate I am to have some kit that really really hits the mark and satisfies my admittedly picky nature when it comes to lens performance. C’est la vie.
