Added to my review of the Nikon 58mm f/1.4G is a 3-way comparison:

Nikon 58mm f /1.4G vs Nikon 58mm f/1.2 NOCT-Nikkor vs Voigtlander 58/1.4 SL (D800E, Persimmon Tree)

Persimmon trees bear heavily every other year. This tree is loaded. One big windstorm and the tree is at risk of serious damage. I’m going to harvest some tomorrow.
