yes, f/1.2 or faster on any format, just let us know what lens and what format. you can see the thread rules in the first post and me arguing about why smaller formats should be included over the first few pages of the thread.

The ones with "FS" (FastStone) of "(1)" (PMBBrowser) in the filename are edited jpg's, usually I lifted the shadows or exposure a bit and added some contrast and saturation and some small radius usm, but not much, I try not to affect the rendering too much, the rest (well, only the last one in this case) are ooc jpg's.

I know it is personal, but I find the background bokeh on that Canon FD 55mm 1:1.2 S.S.C. ASPHERICAL @ f/1.2 almost always very, very disturbing. It is almost migraine inducing, and seems to destroy photographs that might have had a chance at a narrower aperture.

That's ok and indeed very personal, I like it a lot because it's a vivid, as in not too smooth like a modern perfectly corrected Sigma or Otus for example and not too busy (imo) like a Porst or too swirly like a Biotar, the nFD 50 1.2 above looks a bit busier to me as well? Although I like all of those as well, so perhaps I do like busy bokeh..
Could you elaborate a little bit on what you find particularity disturbing, as I don't really see what you mean compared to other super fast lenses, or perhaps give an example of bokeh you like at f/1.2, perhaps the EF 50L which is very smooth indeed, but quite low/fluffy contrast overall?
The Rokkor (which I have as well) for example seems smoother ooc, but in fact, when you try to equalize the contrast with the 55 Asph the bokeh becomes almost the same it seems to me.

Actually I think it might have more to do with me and how I use it, than with the lens, I use it a lot wide open in bright sunlight with harsh backgrounds..

I do get headaches quite often though, so I will look into that

Haven't seen anything from the Zhongyi Speedmaster II 35mm f0.95 yet, so here goes.
Taken with a Sony A6500, adjusted to my taste...

Canon FL 1.2/58 at 1.2 on A7R2, architectural details wo. Central resolution is excellent, it just gets dodgy near the edges.
