I don't think there is an f/1.2 lens on the planet that loses that much light.

Perhaps it is easier to accept that a f0.95 lens shoots t1.4?

Yes, because it isn't a Leica lens.

Mitakon used to have a rather poor reputation. Now they are trying to make more interesting, niche lenses. But it seems they are still not on the level of, say, Samyang. Much less some of the other lenses discussed in this thread
There were some threads about Mitakon lenses, but I don't remember really positive, emphatic reviews
