I'm slowly going through all the posts, starting from the first. It will take days, it's one of the longer threads on this forum!
I've posted a few shots myself, done at f/1.2, but only on the bokeh thread. I will likely post a few more here soon...

I'm writing on my phone now, and I have no camera pics saved on it, but I would like to address a wrong info I found over and over.
The Cosina f/1.2 is NOT a Cosina design, it's a Tomioka one. Like the Revuenon, or all the others in M42 mount (Yashica, Ricoh, etc).
On the other hand, the Cosinon N is a different (Cosina) design, like the Porst.
All of them are 55mm.
The design of the back glass says it all. Check Google Images and pay attention to the back of the lenses, you'll find there are two designs, and that it's not difficult to assess which of the two was used.

By the way, I own the Revuenon 55mm, Porst 55mm and SMC Pentax 50mm (optically identical to the Pentax-A).
My personal opinion?
I love the Revuenon, the Pentax is quite close, and the Porst is following at some distance (though still very interesting for creative use).
Of course my evaluation refers to three specific examples I used. Vintage lenses have plenty of variance, so my views can't be taken as absolute.

Cheers

Paolo

K-1 + Revuenon 55/1.2, SOOC JPEGs.



Some PF if you look closely, but the edges and corners look nice to me.


Cross-posted from Revuenon 55mm f1.2 sample photos, which has a few more examples, including (gasp) one at f/2. Just for comparison purposes...

I've been following this thread for quit a while and I finally became eligible to become a member of the club, thanks to a great pf member from AZ. My K 50mm f1.2 arrived today and this is one of the first shots I've taken. Shot at 1.2, just wanted to share it with you.
