Keep in mind that that the depth of field is paper thin, and you have to ensure that the rangefinder is adjusted properly, and is matched to the lens. However, my first 5 rolls with Noctilux were all out-of-focus, due to lack of technique in my part. Also, Noctilux is not all that sharp at close distances. It seems to do best at 2m or greater.
