Pros: compactness, versatility, brightness, overall quality

Cons: slight distortion, price

Opinion: The 18mm f2.8 asph is the smallest and most compact lens in the TL series and is the reason I made it choose. Combined with the Leica CL the dimensions become those of a pocket compact, neither more nor less. The small lens behaves well in most cases and that f2.8 is often really convenient. The wide-angle focal is street-wide, but I often use it on the go because of its versatility and especially its brightness. Compared to the other fixed in the series it is certainly not what I prefer for image quality and sharpness but it does well its work and the very small footprint most of the time repays me for some of its flaws. In my opinion it gives the best of itself between f4 and f5.6 while from f8 onwards the incisiveness degrades a little. In short, in my opinion a good lens for everything without excelling in anything in particular but that for its very small size ends up being the favorite travel companion.
