Leica Noctilux-M 75mm f/1.25 ASPH Unboxing and Overview 

Yeah, Live View and focus aids will help greatly in this area.

I believe most camera manufactures don’t recommend hanging the a heavier lens off the camera body. I can understand you wanting to carry it by the camera being the M10 compact size.

Marian Palko this lens doesn't perform well with the gfx. You should just use the gfx lenses

Average Camera user How do you know?

Have you tried Fuji 110/2, by the way?

This is a first look overview, not a full review as I would do on Red Dot Forum. I shot and edited the video the day I got the lens and didn't have time to go out shooting at the time of recording.

None

Yes. M lenses are all compatible with Sony A7 series with adaptors. But at 12.000$, you have thousands of options... even a GFX 50 S (or R) + 100mm f:2

Thanks for your feedback and I'm sorry you felt that the soundtrack detracts from the video. I drop the music down to about -36 dB, while the dialog is at -6 to -12 dB, so it should be pretty subtle. As to why, the music serves three purposes: 1) Videos with underlying music do tend to be more professional, just like those shot with lighting, good color grading, proper miking, or with animation graphics. 2) Music prevents the video from being too monotonous or boring, and creates an upbeat mood. 3) Music in the background helps make the editing process easier, by covering up slightly imperfect audio cuts. Almost any movie or TV show has a soundtrack, why should RU-vid videos be any different?

RedDotForum 3 reasons why You Tube is different to me. 1) On TV, a segment is literally 2 minutes, so the music isn’t as annoying as it is on a 12 minute or longer(!) You Tube video. 2) when we watch TV we tend to do so with good speakers and the underlying music fades into the background better. With You Tube videos we are more likely to be listening through a small phone speaker, small iPad speaker, cheap headphones or on a train or in some other noisy environment and we really don’t need yet another sound as we struggle to hear the person speaking. 3) again, looking at our You Tube viewing habits, we are more likely to already be listening to music when we play the You Tube video. Everyone has multiple windows open regularly and it is very common to watch a video while you are already playing music. But thank you for the intelligent response no matter what you decide to do for future videos.

But very few can at f/1.25. :)

Hard to believe. Still an incredible lens.

I have no problem nailing focus with a 75 Lux or Noctilux f/1 on an M9-P. Just sayin...

@@spoolindsm127 Same here with the Noctilux.

With that comment I doubt you can even afford the 250 dollar lens
