Sonny  sold his Noctilux? I thought we would have to pry it off his  cold,
rigor-mortised hands.

It seems from this thread that I have sold out, but I assure you I still  
own 
six M lenses, a VC converted to M, and four Leica R lenses, an M7 and an  
R8. 
 
 
I used the Noctilux for a year, and shot very few pictures with it.   The 
ones I got were eye-poppers, but since Jeffery has all the 50mm DNA in  
Louisiana, and it was hard for me to love the focal length, I sold the lens 
to  someone 
I am assured will use it.
 
My heart is still pitter-patting over an M8, but I want to know more about  
this battery thing.  All other issues seem surmountable, but I have been  
spoiled by the Pentax digitals that get 800 pictures on a set of  batteries. 
 
Stay tuned.

Sonny
