Only drawback is the size, weight and cost You said it all, Bill. Before I splurged on the 35 lux ASPH, I had my misgivings about this device - overpriced, bad bokeh, heavy, and what have you. After I bought one, there is no turning back. Inspite of its hefty weight, size and price, this piece of glass is what I would consider a top notch optic with NO EQUAL. Give me a choice of only ONE 35mm lens, it will be the 35 lux ASPH! After using my Noctilux, weight is of little concern... Dan K.
