Just got a 180/2 and a R.I find it very hard to focus accurately.Was 
prepared for that after reading reviews but still it is a bit of a suprise.I 
have to say that i also have focusing problems with a noctilux at close 
range.This is worse however.By coiincidence i just shot a test roll to get a 
feel for the limited depth of field.
Obviously one sees it when using the DOF lever .But with my poor memory it 
is nicer to have it in print .I,ll try and posts these later.
