Awesome shots Musicman. Here is my shot with this amazing lens,.. after great research the only better f/1.2 glass in my opinion is Noct-Nikkor 58/1.2. FD 55/1.2 S.S.C. ASPH has onion rings in bokeh in great contrast areas, Noct has overall better corrected optics so is superb for astrophotography too, the only downside is the 2-3x higher price than FD 55/1.2 ASPH.. After some shots with Canon FD 55 I´am going to sell my Mitakon 50/0.95 v1 (58mm filter thread) Due to higher contrast of FD it´s easier to focus wide open.
* A7r II + Canon FD 55/1.2 S.S.C. ASPH
