I believe that will be the angle of view you would be referring to. Yes, I go agree. However, I have taken a different approach. For a 24mm lens, I step back from the subject to incorporate more of the view if needs be rather than switch to the more wide angle lens. If I were to use say a 18mm lens instead, that would give me the "look" of a 18mm lens but not a 24m lens (more distortion, etc.)

Of course, that's why Leica has digital specific lenses soon. It is supposed to correct for both view of angle and depth of field. Hopefully that 25mm f1.4 will give the fingerprint of the Summilux-R 50mm.
