Leica CL and TL2: Daring, Risky, Necessary, Expensive - and They Make Me Happy

After last month's four part series on the Leica SL, I wondered if maybe I should look at the CL instead. And if I were to look at the CL, why not its more daring, less expensive older brother (as long as you don't buy the Visoflex tilting EVF for it, but of course you SHOULD). Anyway...I loved them. Which is not really what I was expecting - nor, with all of that image quality available to me, was the joy of exploring whether or not I could take less than technically perfect images and still be happy. I could.
