Asunto: [Leica] IMG: Noctilux at work

All of the following photos were taken with the M8 and the 50mm Noctilux.
All except the last photo were taken at f1.0 and ISO 640.

These photos were all taken inside of the restored home of William Penn on
the Delaware River. There is not lighting in the home and flash photos are
not allowed. Even the window panes have a UV protection film to help
preserve the antiques furnishings. I have learned in order to take photos
you need a sunny day and a fast lens.

#1 Focused only on the pot in the center of the hearth.

#2 On the edge of the table is a wampum contract which signifies a land
purchase by Penn from the Indians.

#3 The following photo shows what appears to be a miniature tea set.  
It is actually a full size coffee set of the time. Coffee was so expensive
only a small amount was ever made at one time.

#4 The kitchen hearth. Focus was on the blacker pot near the center of the
photo.

#5The following photo was able to be taken at f2.8 because of the light from
two windows and also an attempt to get the whole table in focus. The focus
point was the nearest loaf of bread.

I hope you enjoyed the photos. I also wanted to show the LUG that it is
possible to use the Noctilux and M8 together in very low light and actually
take photos. I love this lens now.
