Subject: [Leica] carry the noctilux to alaska?

logan asks if he should carry his noctilux to alaska and other parts with
him -- and since he asks....

personally, i'd leave the noctilux at home and just get yourself film
that's a half stop faster than you were planning on. f 1.0 isn't much of
an advantage over f 1.4, but the weight is considerable. we're lucky that
faster film is the same weight as slower film. 

also, i don't know what your hit ratio at f 1.0 is, but mine is pretty
darn slim.

you asked,

kc
