I wonder how long my back will last. :-). Ben<< ben, i've been fortunate to have a noctilux for about five months now. it's = a killer lens, and trust me, you'll get used to the weight. i also have = a 75 Summilux, and i find the noctilux easier to handle than the 75. = they weigh about the same, but the noctilux just feels better in my = hands and i forget about the weight. besides, my two young nephews seem = to be growing used to, and even rather fond of their aunt kim's one = LARGE black eye. :-) =20 i do have a 50/2 summicron too (the first Leica lens i purchased) that = makes a nice, lightweight alternative. super sharp too..... best, kim
