Nice to see the other Nocts.
Awaiting more A/B comparisons, here are a few more from the 58/1.2. First two at f/1.4; I particularly like the combination of very sharp and very soft. Last one at f/2.8, tack sharp already. All from today's commuting crop.

The Noct as a walkaround lens. Fresh from today, f/5.6 and f/8 respectively

I came back from a week at a cloister with the monks. I only had the D850 and the Neo-Noct with me to discover it better. There will be a lot of shots in the thread that I will soon open.

I like this lens at any aperture, only 1.4 and 2.0 are a tad more magic.

After buying it used I had it serviced at NPS. Since then it works very well on all of my cameras

too bad I got no possibility to test it here, side by side. Quite curious to see more of it.
