Here are two "images" :) Both with the Leica Summilux-R 80 f/1.4 at f/1.4. I love love love this lens for taking people pictures. It is hard to focus, but you do know when you've got it, almost all of the time. I was getting a surprisingly high number of keepers, perhaps 3/4, and some really really good ones. I didn't sharpen these at all, btw. Developed with Adobe Lightroom, which is really growing on me. I so wanted to like Aperture, but after using it for a while, I found it constraining and hard to get top results out of. Lightroom feels so natural. And this is coming from an Apple fan, and someone who doesn't like Adobe much.
Looking good Carsten, I think that once a person gets a chance to spend some time with the 80 summilux, it's a hard lens to not want to use whenever possible. I also like to use the lens at wide open as often as possible.
I have the Kodak SLR 14N with the newest sensor which has been recently CLA'd by Kodak. If you are interested, please PM me. I also have 5 batteries, two of which are still in the original packaging. I have some very fine images from this body, but read the data about it. It is phenomenal for some applications and not as great for others.
Let me know if you have interest

PS This has a traditional F mount so you can use any Nikon lens with it. (Far as I know) There are probably old manual focus lenses which won't work but most of those don't work on the modern Nikon bodies either!
Asher- only the Canon mount version will allow use of exotics. The Nikon mount has too deep of a mirror box, IE the flange to film distance is too great.
