My lovely APO 90

M8, 90/2.0 APO, F2.5 (or 2.0?)

I wonder if there aren't more forum members who would like to see the character of a lens, instead of merely judging (Leica-)images as such, so that's why I chose this title (for the search engine).

The first weeks after buying this lens I kept thinking whether I shouldn't have taken the 75/2.0 but I'm over that now. Depth of field/bokeh is so nice with this lens.

It is a great lens - I actually sold my APO 75/2 to purchase my APO 90/2. I'm glad to find someone else who is as enthusiastic about this lens as I am. I use it a lot for landscape work but truth be told it really shines as a portrait lens. It has a delicacy to light management, as shown in your shot, which is superb.

Yes! It's as if the sun is shining in the cookie, whereas it was a normal cloudy day and this was taken in northern light too.

Thanks for the reinforcement of my decision

Ben, Louis, Stuart, Robert and David, thank you all for the nice comments, I hereby give the compliments through to Leica for this lens.

(I was not really happy with my M8 at first because of all sorts of small but irritant back- and frontfocus problems, but now that all my lenses and body are adjusted in Solms, I am beginning to get back my confidence and joy with this set.)
