[Leica] Portraits with the Noctilux

[Lluis Ripoll]

HI TED,

OF COURSE I AGREE, THE ONLY LIMITATION I’VE FOUND IS THE VIGNETTING IN A SCENERY VIEW UNDER F STOP 2.8, I THINKTHE NEW NOCTILUX IS MATCH BETTER ON THIS ASPECT BUT I PREFER THE SMOOTH TONES AND THE CERTAIN GLAMOUR THAT THE OLD ONE GIVES 

CHEERS
