Subject: RE: [Leica] Noctilux to be Discontinued?

The Noctilux is loved for its speed, but also for its fingerprint of
light... the quality of image.  If they "improved" the lens, the fingerprint
would change.  If they improve it the way they did on the 35/2 ASPH vs the
35/2, the quality of the image would be almost impossible to believe it was
an "improvement"....

Not relevant to the financial decision, or deal with the Elcan production
folk....... there are all sorts of reasons the lens may not be producible.
