I have the Voigtlander Nokton 50/f1.1 for the next week and I'm planning on running several rolls side-by-side against my Zeiss Planar 50/f2.

I'm considering replacing the Planar with this so we'll see. I'm a little skeptical though, since Zeiss bokeh is pretty hard to beat imo.

Stay tuned for results and photos!
