M9/M8 users: Opinions on 50mm Nokton f1.1 vs Noctilux f1.0?

[eleskin]

I have the 50mm Noctilux for my M8 and love the "NOCT" look, however, for some situations, this new 50mm Nokton may be a good choice. Those who have this lens , how do you like how it performs with the M9/M8, and how does it compare to the Noctilux, f1.0?

I've shot the lens on film and the M8 and I love it. I've never tried a Noctilux but I found the Nokton had very nice looking out-of-focus areas.
I tripod tested my copy and it is quite sharp at all apertures and there is no focus shift.
This lens is a great deal!

I preferred the top pix (smoother OOF areas) but to be honest, they're 98% similar to me! 😱

Agreed--top is better, but they're much closer than I might have expected.

I have the Nokton and really like it.
