I agree with mehrdad.  I think it goes to show that
there is a lens working here that is more important
than either the Nikkor 85 or Leica 75:  the lens in
Didier's eye.   Tom

Summilux M 75/1.4. Both lenses have a great bokeh wide

look is a bit "cleaner", might be sharper. The 'Lux
has more, hmm, let's 
say "signature"? Or "character"? Compare yourself:
