[Leica] Nokton 40mm F1.4

[kingfisher at halcyon.com (Larry Bullis)]

I have one (the SC, though) which I use on my M5 & M2. I like it a lot. 
It's well made, the glass is excellent, and everything is where it 
should be - for me, at least. The previous owner had modified it to 
bring up the 35mm frame lines which I've learned to manage with just fine.

I prefer single coated to the MC, but I've not shot the same lens in the 
other version so I can't speak to that aspect. As for the image quality, 
I find it more than adequate. I've been quite happy with it.
