My current PAW is, I hope, an illustration of the image quality that some Leica lense produce: http://tinyurl.com/6sc2r I could not have gotten the shots I got that evening with my Nikons, for a number of reasons...very low light, very low shutter speeds, and noise. I took this shot, and others that night, with a quiet M7, set on Auto. Very few folks even noticed that I was shooting. The low background conversation noise covered the noise of the shutter, and, of course, there was no flash. Ken -- The Rev.
