Riccis knows I agree with him, though the Nocti isn't the only great fast Leica lens in the stable. The 75 Lux, which isn't that expensive used at all, is a superb lens, even in the dark, because a 1.4 lens is just no slouch, and neither is the m8 if the light is good.
Here are a couple... first a Nocti shot. This is the bride's favourite picture of her mother, who doesn't smile in pictures and always tenses up when shot... She's obviously not aware of me, and the M8 helps make that happen...
M8 f1.0 (but at ISO 320) and 1/90s. It's still dark folks--that's like shooting with my Canon 2.8 zoom at ISO 2500
So the Nocti or the Canon .95 really do open up shooting...

And here's the 75 Lux at ISO 640 1/90 in a very dark covered bridge--just a bit of light coming from the entrance. I'm at f2.0 here. I probably pushed this file at least a stop in post, but you'd never know it. Colour prints extremely well, though muted, in this shot.
