When the Summilux f1.4 and Noctilux f1.2 5omm's are used on the CL, they MUST be stopped down to at least f2 - I gather to get proper coverage of the frame w/o too much fall off, though I have no idea why this would be. The Noctilux f1.0 should *not* be used on the CL. Use of the 90mm Summicron f2 is also proscribed. Again, I dunno why. Anyone know why? Cheers! - ----------- David Young | The customer always right!
