Ah, okay got it. Agree the ART is special on it's own, has that great 3D look, very sharp and great color too; and if you are only going to own one 50, the ART should be it. (Unless you already own an ASPH or even pre-asph Summilux M :ROTFL:!)
But the Mitakon is more of a classic old school "Mandler-esque" on steroids rendering -- actually very similar to the original f1.0 Noctilux -- with the spherical aberrations artistically blurring the frame edge and speculars. It and the brass-lantern Petzval 85 are both representative of the unique look lenses I like to dork around with and will be relegated to the A7r's bag.
