I'm wondering under what circumstances you are using your 135 with the
Visoflex. I have the newer 135 APO which, on the Visoflex, does not focus at
infinity. Are you using yours for macro type shooting?
Thanks,
Bob

Yes.
My favorites changed from the 50/1.0 to the 35/1.2 (Nokton) and from
the 35/1.4 to the 24/2.8.? I'm using the 135 on the M8 but only with
the Visoflex.
