The 135 that I carried is the Hektor - 135/4.5  I bought it to use 
with the Visoflex and M8.  I had never used it as a normal lens so I 
guess it's possible the awful bokeh is the fault of the Hektor!  I 
don't remember using it that day, but I guess it's possible (although 
I would think that the shallow depth of field would be an indication 
that it was a faster lens?)
