Lens Differences Outweigh M8 vs M9 differences?

My M8 results in terms of image quality are distinctly affected by the choice of lens. The 40 'cron is a dream in terms of sharpness, bokeh, colour and gradation from deep black to bright white. My (former) 28mm Elmarit v4 was noticeably poorer in all areas except sharpness.

 

Does this make a nonsense of all the hyper-technophiles arguing the minutae between M8 and M9?

 

For conjecture......Discuss.....(If you want)

I don't profess to know all the technical aspects of lens choice and how the M8 sensor records light from the different optics, but from a user standpoint I agree with you. My 28 Elmarit ASPH and 75 cron both have knock your socks off color saturation and sharpness and the b&w tonal range is superb. My 21 Elmarit pre ASPH and my 35 lux pre ASPH are flat in color saturation compared to the other two but b&w has a different look that I like, especially the blacks which look like velvet.
