While this is not a Leica generated image, it is in response to the earlier
discussion over the 4x5 being a 'gimmick'.

The thing about equipment, is that it will get you what you want, but only
if you know how to use it when it's called for. The screen can't duplicate
the depth of the 4x5's tonality, but neither could 35mm duplicate it on
fiber paper. And yes, I've shot it with all three formats, 120 including,
with the 4x5 being the clear winner.
The print is for sale, if anyone is interested.
