Feels fine on the MP and the M9. I wish it didn't have the scalloped focus collar though, I like the feel of continuous knurling ala Leica.

It seems like an extraordinary lens.

A few more....

Here is a few more:
Getting better with this puppy
Kodak BW400CN at box speed
Used whatever f/stop and SS needed... but I tried to use the widest f/stop I could.
1st image only:
I used a perspective control to add the interesting lines. I like it. May not be every ones taste.

Great capture..
So, fast action and being in focus can be done..at wide f/stops..
I noticed that at f/1.1 at 6 feet allows a bit of DOF depth for this kind of photography

Nice one
Look at those bottles on the top shelf....
OOF soft with nice edge detail.. I like that kind of effect.

I used it for a wedding a couple of weeks ago, quite a few results came out really well.

So what's the deal with the focus shift of this lens? Is it mainly at minimum focus distance? I must admit I'm beginning to drool for this lens. I know they have entirely different signatures, but how does the focus shift of this lens compare to the ZM C 50 1.5?

You have M8/9 ?
I find no FS on my M5... I believe the later models (now currently being sold) may have this issue addressed from other threads I have read.
The Signature is more natural than dreamy I guess. I prefer this look. And the light fall off is less at the corners than the Leitz offerings, from what I have read anyway.
For me, it was a matter of most bang for my dollar. I had one opportunity to equip myself with a nice RF and lenses.. I could of gone with a Current M7 and one or two lenses, or, an older M with 4 descent lenses.. I chose the later.

If it did have a focus shift - how can it be addressed? I mean I thought that focus shift is due to the optical design. Like one is ZM Sonnar 50/1.5 - thats what it does and cant really be "addressed". Now, if some lenses just had some quality control issues - THAT could be "addressed".
Oh, and I still think that CV 50/1.5 is "most bang" for the dollar.
