Taken wide open at f/1.4 with what has become one of my favorite lenses in a short period of time, the Fujinon XF 35mm.

Voigtlander Nokton 50/1.1, wide-open on the M Monochrom.

Back in the 1970s I came across the phrase "This lens is so Fast that you can shoot black bears in caves at Midnight".
This is one of the most under-rated lenses ever made.

On the M9,

Almost everybody has owned or still owns a Takumar or two and I'm no different, only I have now got a mirrorless camera body to properly adapt them to. These recently taken with the 50mm F1.4 wide open (the un-cool 7 element version).

That renders very similar to my LTM Canon 50mm F1.2, albeit you're better at controlling the lens output than me.

The Nikkor-SC 5cm F1.4 wide-open on the Leica M9, this lens is now 70 years old.

This is the first 5cm F1.4 lens for full-frame 35mm. Zeiss introduced a 5cm F1.4 Biotar for 35mm movie cameras in the late 1920s, but was not quite 24mm x36mm coverage.
This lens is a Sonnar formula, "stretched" the design from F1.5 to F1.4. That does not seem like much- until you see the glass in it!
