Now that the dust has settled around its introduction, vague talk of "plasticity" has faded, and owners have had a chance to really use them for a while... can anyone explain to me what the Noctivid model is really meant to be, vs the Ultravid? I've only handled one once briefly myself, and couldn't tell what the extra weight is actually going into. Not improved FOV, or transmission, or (as far as I noticed) sharper edges. Not reduced CA from what I've read here, or anything else that seems obviously measurable. What's different? How would you describe your preference for it, or the purpose of the new model, to someone who's used a Leica regularly (BN, HD+) for years?
