Well, that is a big deal. The old Lux may be 40 years old, but until the
arrival of the new Lux R and M, it was still among the best 1.4/50 you
could buy.

That's a petty big deal when you take in to account that many consider
the Cron the best 50 out there. It's a real big deal when you take in to
account that a f2 lens is beat or matched by a 1.4 design, even at f2.

The Nocton doesn't win by a knock out.
