Why buy a Noctilux and stop down?? john -----Original Message----- A subject coming towards me I'm supposed to follow focus with another lens than a Noctilux easier? Its not an easy thing to do with ANY rangefinder 50mm lens I'm not sure how much harder it would be stopped down with a Noctilux. You want follow focus get an SLR. You want a rangefinder camera stop down and use wides and zone focas. You'll be shooting that way faster and better anyway, -- Mark R. > > That is one of the things I like about it ;-) I find it far easier to get > focus than on shorter focus throw Summiluxes. > > john > > -----Original Message----- > > > Actually, the thing that bugs me the most about the Nocti is the long focus > throw.
