Yes, very important. When I first used my lens there was a slight focus
problem with my M6. This lens "discovered" it for me. Now my shots are
tack sharp, if I focus carefully. It also seems to have that "Leica look"
that I keep hearing about. In other words, in a random sample of photos
taken with this lens and a similar (and very good, I might add) lens from a
major Japanese camera company whose name begins with M, I can usually pick
out the Leica's. (I often use both cameras at the same shooting).
