Canon 85mm/1.5 LTM

Did you have to do anything special to use ISO2500 and get good results with your M9?

For High ISO on the M9 and M Monochrom: fully charged battery, slow 4x Sandisk memory cards. I've found that fast cards can cause banding at high ISO.

Thanks for your tips.

Some production data on the 85/1.5 from Peter Kitchingman's book. He lists 4 types (trim and cosmetic changes) and about 2,300 units produced total. A rare lens.

My copy is a Model IV based on Peter's feedback to me then.
