Only two things annoyed me. The auto-collapsing hood and that there was no focusing tab. The new 'lux solves both and may even match the performance of my 35/1.4 Asph. That is nothing to sneeze at. I love(d) my Noctilux but the 1m close focus limit is something I was constantly finding myself fighting. Once or twice is no problem but constantly means I like to work closer with my 50s. If it isn't fitting the bill, it has to go. So take that you digital curmudgeon :-) John Collier PS: It is spoken for. On May 27, 2004, at 1:51 PM, B. D.
