Thanks all for the comments on my previous post, and here are some with the 100/2 from today.

This must be the best lens in the history of the world. At least for 24x36.
Maybe, but personally I prefer your shooting style combined with Distagon (and Biogon) 35 and Planars 50 & 85.
Philippe, liked your foggy Versailles shots.

That\'s rather interesting - I\'ve found the bokeh at f/2 to be very good and typically free of LoCA. This especially at MFD.
LoCA is just one of the defects you can have in bokeh. On your shots the background is very very far compared to the target. In those conditions the roughness of 50MP won\'t show up. Almost any lens gives \"good bokeh\" when the bokeh highlights are 2-5mm like in those photos. 50 planar and 50 makro-planar give their optimal bokeh on different situations. It\'s just picking correct tools for each job (and there is no \"the correct tool\" since preferences for rendering style are quite subjectional).

Trying to follow my own policy \"no post without photo\", at least as long as I have non-published photos on hard drive... Typically I very rarely use other than planar projection while shooting panoramas, but using spherical projection draw nice curves to this image (Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 2/35 @ f/2, 0.3s, 25 images, 11912px x 12364px, 115.68deg x 120.09deg):
