Now how come you can put a Zuiko on your Cannon, but I can't put a Cannon on my Oly?

EF lens interface is very different and it's only one "n" in Canon. It was originally 'Kwanon' in 1934 but in 1935 they registered 'Canon' as the trademark.

John, your shot above does more to support your arguments on quality lenses than words can ever convey. A picture is worth a thousand words. Very nice.

Poor focus behind the camera creates as many bad photos as poor focus through the camera!

Stovall, these are very nice examples of what this lens can do.

By the way, I was reading a book in B&N last night on the history of the Leica camera line. I had no idea that camera had so much history. I now have a better understanding and appreciation of the Leica, which will only be intensified when I finally get to use one. Not sure when that will be though.
