Possibly because you are taking two (out of three) cameras that are manual 
focus only? You are excited about getting the new Monochrom that is manual

I would say that you know little about me ;-) However I would say just take 
the 50mm Summilux asph with you, the Noctilux is more of an 'art' lens these 
day since high ISOs are available.
