I may just go ahead with what I already have in lenses unless someone wants to contribute a Canon 50/1.5 and any other Sonnar normal lenses, such as the Rollei 40/2.8. I have already had both of these lenses loaned to me in the past, so maybe asking the same people again would be asking for too much.
I will wait a little longer to see if this thread will die by itself or not.

My set-up will be as follows for my vintage lenses comparison:
I will take identical photos with my 50mm Sonnar lenses:
a. Zeiss Jena 5cm/2 LTM) (cleaned and adjusted by DAG)
b. J-3 5cm/1.5 (adjusted by Brian Sweeney)
c. Nikon 5cm/2 (tested many times)
d. J-8 5cm/2. (tested also)
I will add as my control lens the Summicron 5cm/2 first version rigid. Its optical performance is known to people.
With only five lenses, it will be a manageable lens testing that I can enjoy. All lenses are LTM, which will allow me to use one camera body for all shots. My goal here is to get the "Sonnar Look".
Suggestions for specific shots are welcome.
