Leica Vario-Elmar-R ASPH 21-35mm/3.5-4 @ 33mm

On the M8? Correct?

On the M8? Correct?

NO, on the G1. BTW, it is a Leica R lens, it could not be focused on an M (no rangefinder coupling if you use an adapter)

NO, on the G1.

I understand now... you would get a little more fov with a wider format but @ 4:3 I can see how the theoretical FOV vs actual is different.
