The Leica T which I borrowed from Leica Mayfair has been on assignment to Washington DC where it did the touristy thing. During a four-mile hike from Georgetown, past the infamous Watergate building, through to the Mall, I snapped a few typical tourist shots just to see how the camera performs as a walk-around snapper.

All these pictures were taken with the 18-56mm Vario-Elmar-T lens.
