Hello David.

You are right again (sigh): a Developped RAW would have been more 
impressive.

But this was a test shot.


Of course, you know that Pan European refers to this but you did not wanted

I have ordered a Leica R to 4/3 adaptor from a different maufactrer than 
what I have already. It looks more like the Laica Made item.

We'll see if it can accomodate the 24 Elmarit (grumble, grumble).

Cheers.
