Helena - Thank you. Very interesting comparisons. Both are nice lenses, but I think I prefer the Zeiss for the shadows and lower contrast.

Thanks! Yes, from these shots I too prefer the Zeiss, but only by a small margin. As you and others may have noticed I love shooting against the sun
and there the Voigtlander has a big advantage with its flare resistance and sunstars. The big question is if it's worth it to sacrifice that for the slight general advantage of the Zeiss... I guess time will tell.

Tremendous color in the sky on this cold crips Minnesota morning. It was tough to find a spot to pull off the road to grab a couple of shots with my new Loxia 21. I really like the colors and rendering of this lens. All handheld @ auto ISO.

Werner: Beautiful shot with the 70-400G2.
Bob: Beautiful images with the Loxia 21. I really like the sky color.
Mike: Stunning Seattle sunrise.
Joshua: I hate carnival, but those shots are nothing short of exceptional.
Helena: Wonderful winter landscape shots a few pages back.
Ronny: Your "ice on the beach" shots always make me want to visit Iceland.
Talking about the Loxia, here are some of my first shots with that little gem.
Wide open.
And stopped down.

I don't want to clutter the thread with test images, but based on PMs and a couple of posts in the thread it seems like there are people who would be interested in seeing some. So, what I have done is post the C/Y photos here, then when there is CV version I have put a link to it.
Thanks for posting, Trondheim counryside looks like beautiful place to live, the wooden houses are much nicer than the concrete blocky buildings in cities. There were not much difference between lenses on these photos, but looking images in tabs and clicking between them I like in all samples the C/Y version better from rendering style point of view - comparison is very hard when there are small differences in light and composition.
I browsed your posts from last winter to fall 2015. That was painful; nice Norway countryside, Stockholm in summer and worst of all was Sardinia - while raining (water) in Finland, and almost no more snow left, and one never sees sun except from office window... I noticed two difference on images, which had stronger look;
1) better optimized black levels
2) microcontrast & how surface textures are rendered (might be relevant to RAW conversion settings or difference how you have resized image to webthumbnail)
Few links to old posts, which in my opinion had stronger rendering with 50 C/Y than CV 50 images in general: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6.
"only" 4 1/2 months and then the greens are back... Zeiss Loxia 2/50 FE @ f/5.6, 1/160s, ILCE-7 @ ISO 100

Trying out a new lens today - Canon EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM - on a7R II. Seems impressively sharp and clean, but has awful OOF rendering (not worthy of the term 'bokeh'). .
