[sigh] and I'm one of those guys who likes bokeh. However, I'm tolerant
of some that other people hate (like the 50/1.5 Nokton). But for the
price of the 50/1.4 Summilux, the bokeh had better jump off the page and
kiss the viewer on the lips.

Yes, he likes it, but he also notes "Bo-ke aficionados will have mixed
feelings about the performance of the lens".

This is what I fear about the new lens.  The old lens had beautiful
bokeh,
but from the way he describes it, the new one is awful.
