At f1.4-2, I make errors (both forward and backward) in >70% of the shots. I use an M6 (classic), and the objects are usually at about 1.5-2 m away. With a Nocti, I seem to be doing better even at f1. Also, I have much fewer problems with an 80 Summilux-R at wide open. Is it a problem only with me, or do many of the users have difficulties focusing with this lens? M6HM may help, but 0.85/0.72 is only an 18% increase. Inability to focus at wide open halves the value of this lens. Please help. Leicalement, Mikiro Strasbourg, France
