Amazing sharpness depicted from the pictures!

Beautiful lens.....

chifei, any chrome version in the works?
 

Anyone tried this lens on G1/GH1 or any M4/3 body? Please post some pictures. Thanks.:)
 

Some more shots from Joo Chiat...

The Nokton sure looks like a winner! I've tried the Noct wide open and my past experience wasn't satisfactory thinking these fast lenses were made for young folks with good eyes, but some of the brilliant shots shown in this thread reopened my 'eyes'. I'm not a fan of bulky lenses but the Nokton looks a tad 'slimmer' compared to the Noct? :) I love my 50mm 'cron but I'm willing to explore again if it's worth the speed.
 

I spranked my neck the other night so looking at ION Orchard in all diffreent angles

Nokton shot no hood, no DI
 

Since so many people ask for it...

Here is my default model...

This gentleman, I recall, owns an M7 and is an avid film photographer. :)

CV 50mm Nokton is really Japan quality value-for-money lens (relatively to Noct). Me and one of my M8's photog really have fun shooting with this lens. :)
 

M8 users with this lens. Can I find a UV/IR filter for this lens locally?

58 UVIR is available from B+W. Price should have soften by now...

You can use B+W 486 UVIR cut filter as Leica don't make filter of that diameter.

as mentioned by chiif and lokewl, but i'm not sure if you can get them locally.

i have a couple of spare B+W 52mm UV-IR, but i don't think i have a spare 58mm...
 

These ones on the M9:

The first photo is of a very reluctant subject. This one when the boy is in a happier mood:

nice shots... whats the minimal focal distance?

one day must test this lens
:)
 

Minimum is 1m. Not quite the 0.7m that I prefer.
 

ya man..becuase of the minimal focal distance, i am considering getting the 50 lux asph...my current 50lux is 1m...

The best all round 50mm lens that I have ever used. :thumbsup:
