As to the bokeh, there are those who hate it, and those who like it. BD While I do not have the Nocton, my Ultron just does not cut it, optically, which was a dissapointment after hearing from many LUGers that it was a very good lens and the equal of the previous pre-asph Summicron (or maybe another generation back from the last pre-asph). Mechanicaly I can not find fault with it though. Gene
