[Leica] Noctilux - Mark

[john at mcmaster.co.nz (John McMaster)]

I have found my asph lenses to be as accurately focussed with the r/f as the 
EVF, I think I get a few more spot on with f1.0 Noctilux/75mm Summilux using 
the EVF but it is not a huge difference. I keep my M in classic metering 
mode, I know how it works (I shoot manual exposure) and keeps it the same as 
the others.
