Some lenses have unique characteristics --learn to use them to your advantage as Samsam demonstrated.

thx, well all about this lens' flaws has been well summarized dozen of times ( lack of sharpness wide open + flare problem )
I really don't care about these defects since the 35mm summilux delivers a really unique character, and i'm not a sharpness addict ( use Rodinal , a good enlarger and you will get stunning b&w pics on FB paper )
here is an example of the flare problem ( pics were taken on Pont Alexandre III where there are lot of street lamps, so it's quite normal )

I have 35 summilux-m made in germany its a great lens
the only reason i'm keepin this lens is FLARE. and stopped down to f/2 it delivers as good as 35mm KOB.

nice shots samsam you really know how to shoot with this babe (i mean the lens 😀)
