This is my first comment. In this piece, you mentioned ponderering what two lenses you'd want with your M9. I'm guessing one would be this 35 Lux. The other? Thanks! Christophe Steve,

I have been doing research on the Leica M9 and looking at lenses trying to decide if I want to invest that much $$ when I am just a stay at home mom that is trying to move on as my last child is going away to college this Fall and my husband told me to do something for me now. He may end up eating those words, LOL! After watching all your videos and reading your reviews I have to say that I am sold on this lens and the M9 camera. I have decided to get a job when my daughter starts college and save my money to buy this dream camera and lens no matter how long it takes to save enough money. I would never ask my husband to spend this much money on a camera as he really wouldn't understand the passion that I have to own one. I am so excited to have a goal which will allow me to move forward and "let go" of my girl so that we can both continue to grow. Thank you for spending so much time helping others understand all there is to know about the Leica brand. How long is the wait for the camera and lens after placing a order? I'm thinking it will take about 18 months to 2 years to save the money so I don't want to wait another year to get the camera. So excited!!! Thanks again.

I have been thinking about selling my old 50mm Summilux Pre-ASPH lens to fund a 35mm Summilux ASPH lens. I am still not sure whether it is a good idea. If I do get the 35mm lens, I would mainly shot it with B&W films. Should I go for it? Best, Chaiporn Hi Steve,

I have purchased a 35mm f1.4 and have a question...is there a series of fiters that fit with the leica hood on. Every filter I have tried UV,or Polarizing when put on the lense directly will not allow the hood to be srewed back on. Is there a solution? Or do you just shoot without the hood/ Regards, Peter Hi,
