Sure, it gets messy at f/0.95 (I bet an f/0.95 Noctilux looks better wide open while covering twice the image-circle diameter - a bargain at 10x the price!), but the pictures can be pleasing. Really, I think the main thing limiting it is the sensors it has to be in front of. (Now how do I ward off a Rabs infestation when I teed something up for him like that?) But for anyone who's curious and hasn't seen these, here are some sample pictures with the 25/0.95 Nokton: http://photos.bazbarfoo.com/Scratch/Nokton-25-Samples/15609899_xun2j#1169625768_dVCg8 On Tue, Apr 26, 2011 at 20:38, Jeff Moore <jbmmllug at jbm.org> wrote: > An odd little video (speaking in breathless terms about the hyper-high > quality of the Cosina stuff we generally look on as a bargain > alternative, with some typos and a narrator exhibiting a really > curious accent at times) but nonetheless possibly interesting to the > assembled company. > > At least, for me, I enjoyed the bits in the Cosina factory. ?The > attempts to explain elementary aspects of depth-of-field control won't > be so useful for people here :-) > > http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9FoxmO5OETM > > Oh, and it's not even about a lens you can bolt on a Leica. ?But > still, in case you're interested, here it is. > > ?-Jeff >
