I have owned Noktons in both LTM and Prominent mount and Ultrons in
Prominent only. The Nokton is superb: better by almost any optical
parameter to the Summarit and on par or better than the 1.5/5cm and 50mm
CZJ/ZO/CZ Sonnar. Zeiss might have been intending on using the Nokton as a
normal lens on the Contax IV, had it been introduced: in any event, the
two versuchs cameras which have survived both have Noktons in Contax RF BM.
