Lucien,

What, not f/1.0?  Then it is not a real Noct!  It must be a fake ;-)  ;-) !!

Seriously, I had this lens once and optically I found it so-so (perhaps I
had a bad sample).  The f/1.0 version is vastly better IMHO.  Still, I wish
I hadn't sold mine to finance the APO Modular 280/2.8.  The dealer I sold it
too is now asking for US$6,000 for it!

Bests,

Joseph
