		Could it be that aside of a few LUG professionals and others
who make good
		photos for a living or for profit, the rest of us are too
concerned about
		the latest, sharpest, bokehest, and microcontrastiest
instead of art, soul,
		and content?

		As an example I will name only one instance: Of all the
sample photos shown
		by LUG members which were taken with a Noctilux, I cannot
name a single one
		whose pictorial merit would justify the enormous expenses of
such a lens.
