I adjusted my Noctilux on the M8 following these general guidelines...

http://www.l-camera-forum.com/leica-forum/leica-m8-forum/13933-new-backfocus-thread-solution.html


I rechecked the focus, seemed OK at f1 at 6-10 feet...

then shot these images, handheld with the Noctilux at f1/ M8 ISO 160,  
the outdoors shots at 1/8000...

iris, not easy)

http://www.solio.us/gallery/PAW/ocanoct       (focus on tip of flower)

http://www.solio.us/gallery/PAW/red           (focus on tip red  
element left edge)


Was it worth it? yes...

Is it better?  yes...

Can it be improved? I doubt it, not easily...

What now?  forget it/take photos...


Steve
