Ok guys. First, thanks for participating. Interestingly, there is a very strong bend towards 3 lenses--CV 35 1.2iii, Pentax 31 ltd and the RX1. This strongly correlates to my real world shooting preferences as well. Tallying the responses (as best I could tell, not everyone voted the same way):

These photos were taken on a stock A7rII, hence the FC many of you noticed. While some lenses are affected more than others (like the Lux, CV 35 1.7 and CV 35/2) I've included some crops to see the central bokeh where FC isn't affecting.
I think you'll find the order of preference the same. It was for me. No PCX filters were used.
Sorry for the slight shift light on the hydrant, but the bokeh is more what I was after, and lighting was consistent for that.
- The new CV 35 1.2iii does pretty well, and I have been enjoying is as portrait 35mm. I may swap my CV for an SE but I have an m-mount film camera.
- WB and exposure has been adjusted, I see the much warmer 31 ltd and Leica colors.
- Despite it being at a half stop disadvantage, the RX1 is easily the smoothest.
I might round up some other lenses I am curious about, more of an SLR set, and do another round.
