You must be High to pay for the new Hy6

"high value important sporting and fashion events" now there's a wonderful oxymoron...

This is a great shot! It has a feel similar to the 1960's Richard Diebenkorn. He is one of my all time favorite American painters.

Your point is well taken. What I meant was high cost sports or fashion events.

It is true that not all of us like here may like sports or women.

George, I didn't misread the charts.

Being longer does not make it better. If you believe that then just go get yourself a 1000mm lens

Yes the Canon has a larger max app and that's nice to have, if you actually use it. At the other apertures the Leica is ahead in image quality.

You seem to be a fan of Canon AF. I guess we disagree there too. I'd prefer the Leica manual focus action which is what I would actually use.

I don't care how many pros use a Canon lens. That doesn't make the lens good or bad. Maybe it's the best choice for point-and-shoot style work like sports but we are discussing image quality not size, weight, AF, etc.
