I like mine a lot, use it all time. It's a keeper. Thought I wanted a Summilux 75 but not anymore.

I've had mine over a year and have really enjoyed it with B&W. I like the view I see and the wonderful contrast. Thoroughly enjoying it!

They're good lenses and not worth a lot, so why sell? A 75mm tends to be a lens you buy because you KNOW you want it, rather than an impulse buy.

Cheers,
