In his posting, Paul Connet noted
To put this whole question into perspective, I am a bit of an equipment
junkie along with my Zuikoholic adiction, and I recently paid $390 USD for a
well-used 50mm Summicron of the third generation looking for the elusive
"Leica Look". I am still trying to see it.
I found the so called "Leica look" long ago having looked at Leica M images
sinces 1965. Don't ask for an objective description because I doubt one
exists. The images I have taken with my OM4T and various Zuiko lenses since
last January [when I first acquired my OM] possess something akin to the
Leica look but with less intensity. As a purely personal and subjective
description, the "look" is an aura of life, depth, feeling, or presence.
Some classical pianists are widely regarded as possessing something similar
in their playing.
