This may be na?ve, but how can it not couple at 1.2? The diaphragm is
independent of the camera.

Ted:

You mentioned a few weeks ago about using your 35/12. Nokton ASPH  on your
M8 and how much you enjoyed the combination.

Recently I've talked to a dealer about that lens and they advise that they
tried it on an M8 and it did not seem to couple at 1.2. No further
explanation provided to me. Ted, have you any indication that this is a
problem with the Voigtlander 35 1.2 on an M8?

Thank in anticipation of your comments.

Scott Gregory
