.... back from Solms.

An M8 with a red line, a backfocusing Noctilux and a leaky Frankenfinder libelle. It took 4,5 weeks, although I was warned it would take six. Leica had updated my M8 with the latest 1,201 update. - The AWB is far better than before. Holy Moses! That was an improvement! The Noctilux, which backfocused 10 cm at 2 meters, now seems so closer to perfect than my eyesight - which is far from perfect. The little dot in the Frankenfinder libelle is dancing about as it should.

....and I am off to Singapore & Malaysia Thursday this week, so this was 'just in time'.

- I sigh with relief!

Happy shoting Olsen.:)

Congrats, Olsen. You can finally enjoy the Noctilux! So ErikFive was right! Be sure to post in the Noctilux shots thread.

Would you ever consider having the Canon 50/1.0 L adjusted? I am very curious to see the performance of that lens, especially head to head with your Noctilux. Keep us posted and enjoy your trip!
