Daniel, thanks for your tips on the Jupiters' focusing issues.  I checked 
mine fairly closely and it seems to focus accurately at 1 meter and f/2 on a 
IIIc.  I'm also testing it on my M3, which focuses a bit more precisely, 
IMO.  I haven't done much actual shooting with it other than that.  Looking 
forward to seeing results of a complete roll.  From what I've seen, though, 
it looks really nice.  I agree with you about the bokeh (creamy) and the 
fact that it's a face-friendly piece of glass.  I hope to post some shots 
when I have something other than tests to show.
