I've currently been using a 40mm ƒ1.4 Classic on my CL. When I first got this lens, I thought there was something wrong with my rangefinder but it turned out that the Voigtlander hood for this lens was interfering with the RF window. I switched to a less intrusive hood and fixed the issue. I've been toying with getting the well regarded 40mm ƒ1.2 ASPH but after reviewing the specs, it appears that the lens itself could cause this behavior. Does anyone have any experience with this combination?
 
I stumbled into a comment on the Rangefinder Forum that leads me to believe that without the 1.2 hood, the RF is not blocked but I'd still appreciate any direct knowledge about this.
