Focus on the new Leica 200mm f/2.8 lens

The new 200mm f/2.8 lens is an expensive but still interesting new proposition. It’s very compact and light. And the 1.4x teleconverter is included for free. Damien Demolder:

Image quality doesn’t appear to dip even when the DMW-TC14 1.4x teleconverter is mounted between the lens and the body, and again used wide open the results are crystal-clean and detailed. I had expected some degradation in sharpness, but there appears to be none – it is very impressive.
