I use a 50mm NF (or DR) lens without a complaint.  It's a wonderful lens,
with good resolution, great sharpness, and superlative corner-to-corner
saturation.  I also have a 1.4/50 Summilux, a 2/50 collapsible Summicron,
and a slew of Zeiss and Russian Zeiss-clone lenses, but the 2/50 NF is the
generally most satisfactory of the lot.

I just shot a bunch of Kodachrome 25 slides of Spotsylvania Court House with
one, earlier today.  It IS great to live in the middle of Real History!
