Pros: Spectacular yield, weight, size, versatility, contrast, bright colors, free from vignetting and distortion even at the most extreme edges and at TA

Cons: Limited maximum aperture, but being a wide angle pushed is not decisive, lack of the frame in the viewfinder of the Leica M, but I took the references and I do less easily

Opinion: Simply spectacular optics! I also had the previous version (Elmarit f / 2.8) also the excellent one with minimal distortion of the edges, this version instead is completely free as it is completely free from vignetting even at TA. The maximum aperture is not great, but being a 24 mm that is mostly used at intermediate apertures I do not see it as a problem, before I had the f / 2.8 version but I never needed this diaphragm in normal use of a 24 mm. The lack of frames in the viewfinder of the Leica M may seem like a limit, but in reality I took some references, it is little more than the frames of the 28 mm and I have difficulty composing up to the margins with a bit of experience and habit. It has a resolution, a precision down to the smallest detail that is an absolute reference so much so that I could print 2 X 1.5 meters a perfect photo even at close range from the 24 MP sensor of my M10P. In summary, it is a perfect optics for reportage and street also thanks to its high PDC and does not make me regret the 28 mm under any circumstances. The only thing that for a leicist maybe it takes a little time to understand the focal length of the 24 not so Wide as the 21 and less versatile than the 35 (classic focal lengths from Leica M) in fact I had sold the Elmarit because little Wide, but then finally I understood it and learned to appreciate it and now I can no longer do without it

Pros: Simply spectacular

Cons: Nobody

Opinion: I own the f / 2.8 aspherical version. It is a simply spectacular lens with unparalleled sharpness and a depth of color and a three-dimensional image. Those who choose a lens like this are aware of getting the most out of it, especially when used with FF. So superfluous to talk about prices. Those who buy a Ferrari can not complain about its price.
