After reading a zillion opinions back and forth about the 50 'Lux compared to the 50 Nokton I still have one nagging question. Has anyone ever tested the actual speed difference between these lenses?

I'd hazard a guess that the 'Lux is pretty honest in it's f/1.4, so then the remains: is the Nokton honest in that, at f/1.5, it's "not quite f/1.4," or is it being dishonest in that it's "almost f/1.4!"

Are these two really only a 10th of a stop apart?
