Elmarit 28mm f2.8 ASPH pictures!

I just received my Elmarit 28 ASPH on Monday...oh what a gem it is! My first new Leica lens, and defenitely a very nice performer on my M8.

Elmarit 1:2,8/28 ASPH, aperture 5,6, exposure 32 sec, Leica M8, Iso 160, developed in Lightroom.
 
Does anyone in Toronto/GTA have this lens? I'd like to test it side by side (by side) with the vintage Canon 28mm f2.8 and f3.5ll.
 
Love the Elmarit-M

One with the Leica M9:




One digital B&W with the M9:




And one with the Epson R-D1:

 
Recently went through a spot of love/hate with this lens and 28mm in general. Refeshed myself trying a bunch of different things. I guess doubt fuels creativity as much as it hampers it sometimes. Now I seem to be turned around back to this lens again, as I always seem to do. It is quite simply flawless and flawlessless is its only flaw.

Hello guys. If you have this lens, could you please post more samples. I am especially interested in anything captured with film, both colour and b&w. Thanks.
 
I've been thinking about getting a 28 summicron, but to be honest, there's so very little to fault this tiny lens with.. it's a no-brainer imho.
