It's sharper and has >more contrast at f1, than the Canon at 1.2. That said, I like the results from the Canon. It has a nice fingerprint. And you can't beat the price... feli -----Original Message----- From: Lawrence Zeitlin <lrzeitlin@aol.com> Sent: Nov 15, 2005 12:37 PM To: lug@leica-users.org Subject: [Leica] Noctilux comparison Ted, or anyone else - I've never owned a Noctilux but I do own an old Canon 50mm f1.2 lens in a LTM. With an adaptor for my M3 it was just the thing when I needed to shoot in available darkness. I would appreciate it if anyone who has used both of these lenses could offer a quality comparison. That is, if you can do it without gratuitous slurs against Canon products. Larry Z _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group.
