Hahah sorry I was merely joking! That's why I said "No one's done it yet" -- I wish I could have used it!

Thanks Jako.

I found mind on Kijiji in Gatineau, Quebec of all places. I live in Winnipeg, but my sister in law lives in Ottawa and works 3 blocks away from the seller.

She picked it up for me, sight unseen. $325, factory AI, slight nick on front element. Love it.

Good luck in your search.

Mike you're making me do some sums on my old gear, thinking about an M9 + CV 35 Nokt.

After 5 years of shooting full frame Canons + 35L, and full frame Nikons + 35 1.4G... I gotta say, this combination blows me away. NO hesitation shooting it wide open. Surprisingly easy to focus. I just freaking love it.

And that Nikon 35? Look for it on the buy/sell board soon (the Canon is long gone).

Right now I've got a 35/1.4G that just doen't get the use it deserves. AF is slow, I prefer MF. I'm shooting mostly with my 55/1.2 and my x100s. I don't think I could get rid of my D700 as I've got some AI/AIS lenses I would miss, but I would LOVE to get a M9 + 35. I think we would get along famously.

If I sell every AF lens I own, I might be getting close. Will still have to add in a healthy dose of cash, but I don't mind a beater M9 if the RF is nice and accurate.

Here's a few ad hoc images taken with my new (to me) Rokkor-X 58/1.2 with Leitax mount, on an EOS 6D. All shots at f/1.2, of course. The first two are quite hot, and not only with respect to the strong backlight. The next two are a bit softer. The last is a 100% crop of the focus point in the third image.

So far, so good. Great DOF control! The strongly backlit images are very clean. There is slight purple fringing on the bottle tops, but it's way better than I expected.

It's pretty sharp in the centre at f/1.2, too. As indicated by the 100% crop of the pillow.

I likes it!

Looks like a winner, Jim. I should line up all of my hot sauces some time....

Grab from this morning with my Nikkor 55/1.2 S.C:
