This is one incredible lens for the price. If any of you have lusted for a Noctilux but could not afford it, I can highly recommend the Nokton. Here are some shots from it his weekend. About 15 of my 1968 high school graduating class try to get together each summer. We had an evening patio get-together this weekend in San Diego. I shot _most _of these at f/1.1, and I didn't tweak them other than using a green filter in Photoshop to increase the contrast on a few males. http://www.400tx.com/files/Hilltop/1.html They didn't need sharpening. This is a very sharp lens wide open. Jeffery _______________________________________________ Leica Users Group. See http://leica-users.org/mailman/listinfo/lug for more information
