sprice Posted January 31, 2007 Share #1 Â Posted January 31, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I just bought a used Noctilux. It is from the early 80s and is made in Canada. Not that I can do anything about it now, but is this still a great lens? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

grober Posted January 31, 2007 Share #7 Â Posted January 31, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) I've handled the lens a few time but have never shot with it. Not to worry: from the photos I've seen, this lens can provide wonderful images -- not only in the dead of night @ f1, but also with all its other f-stops as well. Â Look at it this way: you'll surely develope an increased right bycep from lugging this heavy lens around! Enjoy. Â -g Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
