Rei,
The 75mm is a Summilux, not a Noctilux.
I have this fast lens not only for available light photography in dark
situations, but for having a lot of bokeh at daylight too, and I don't
think I'm strange because of that. I do not agree that this lens should be
used with dark backgrounds only - what a silly limitation!
And I dont believe the Summilux is usually vignetting.
Summilux 1.4/75mm wide open at daylight:

- does anyone see vignetting here?
