I'll start off. I don't own the Panasonic, but I pay close attention to this thread and the specific issue. The Panny is not, alas, supposed to play well with wide M glass. Of course, M glass is made for the M body (lots of discussions of this throughout this site). Next to the M, the SL2 is nearly (not quite) as good (some smearing around the edges especially when you get wider than 35, but I generally find it acceptable). After the SL2, the SL is next. Then comes the Nikon Z (thin sensor cover). After that, nothing is supposed to be acceptable, baring a Kolari or similar modification. At least, that's the general wisdom (Sean Reid, always careful in assessments, seems to confirm). I very much like the colors coming out of the Panny, and, except for the concern about wider M glass (and maybe the wonderful Leica UI) makes me hesitant to buy one myself.

The. only Leica lens that I found up to now to need stopping down to 5.6 to get good corners is the Summicron-C 40. My Summilux 24, Summicron 35 asph 35 and Super-Elmar 18 work well. The S5 has no AA filter, so there is no "thick sensor cover". In fact I think the sensor is the same as the SL2S or. a close cousin. The blip in the curves is in an. area where the SL2S has no data point. (Blue is S5,  black SL2S)

My Summicron 35mm on the S5, wide open:

and I agree with Jaap, the 40mm Summicron-C/M-Rokkor doesn't 'match' the S5 for some reason.

My settings: RAW; and I choose the AWBw, have shadows -.5 and saturation +.5. With shutter priority this works out well. And in Lightroom I have 'normal contrast'.

The most interesting thing is: with the M240 I have a very shallow plane of focus, with the S5 focus seems 'deeper'. It is because of the BSI that the S5 has, that makes the pixels behave like the CCD pixels of old times???

The Summicron C gets beaten soundly by he Sigma 45 DG DN anyway...I paid 300 Euro for a demo without box...

Even better. Because of the shallow well depth, there is less crosstalk towards the edges, making colour separation cleaner.

Hi all,
wanted to participate in here as reading the forum helped me a lot when I tried to decide which camera to buy. In the end I got the S1 with some nice glass and love it. Still getting used to this beast of a camera, but it's exactly what I was looking for.

Below are some photos I took with the Sigma 135mm 1.8. I love this lens
