Noctilux again....on a late fall morning, empty beach. I have often thought about going to a 50/1.4 Summilux in the Leica system - either the pre-aspheric or the current asph lens. The current Leica 50/1.4 asph is considered by many to be the best 50 mm lens yet made in the 35mm format. But when I think about what I can do with the Noctilux, especially at wide open apertures - 1.0 or 1.2, I see no need for a different 50. While other 50's may be sharper, or have better color correction - the Noctilux is simply suited for the style of shooting I enjoy the most.
