I didn't know that under very specific conditions, the Summilux can be so prone to flares.

I have been haunted by this lens for more than a decade now... I do have the 35f2Asph... its lovely....but... @evikne 's work isnt helping me forgetting that maybe, this is the one for me despite all its limitation in terms of creature confort....

How do you guys cope with the 1meter MFD?

I read somewhere recently something that went like this: "oh its actually a blessing in disguise, it forces you to treat it like the wide angle it is"     Which I guess means let the context show, and if you do need more "focus" you always have your 50mil at 70cm.... 

Just finding reasons to keep myself from it but at this point in my life I feel like those women/men in romantic novels who have everything they could possibly want or dream of in their marriage (my marriage with the 35f2 asph) yet they are obsessed with an impossible and imperfect love affair (the imperfect and very limited 35 1.4 pre-asph....)

Not sure if this has been mentioned, but Squarehood has released their v2 lux hood/filter solution, and I just got mine the other day. Very nicely designed, some finder intrusion, but probably the best aftermarket accessory I've used so far.

Hi, it’s a weak point of this lens and the one thing I wish they improved on the re-issue. On the plus side, I think most of them actually focus somewhere around the 85mm-90mm in practice and not 1m.
