Yeah, but the point is that you now have a full frame camera.  Everything is
different now.   I use 35mm Summicron asph, 75mm Summarit and 15mm C/V  on
an M8, but that might all change when I get an M9.

With M7's I used 35mm and 28mm, and now hardly ever mount the 28.  Go
figure.  You have to get out there and see what the new camera likes.

You may find you like the Nocti on an M9.  I never could love mine on a film
camera, but I now wish I had not sold it before I tried it on digital.

Rabiner is right, don't just trade. make sure.
