The 58/1.4's edges are softer than the 50/1.4? The 50/1.4? is already bad...First review of this lens?

does not look too good...it is pretty soft at f1.4... some people is probably going to argue that it is intended....
I expected more at that price. I think the price will go down fast in Japan, might pick it up there in a few months.I don't think the lens is designed for absolute sharpness. Although at the price tag, there will probably be a lot of expectations for that lens, including corner sharpness.

The bokeh doesn't look that good.Kind of like this review. Simple and to the point.

Yes, the writer kind of acknowledged that although it is better than 50 1.4 we have to decide for ourselves if it is US$1200 more worthy. IMO, i still like what I see but am not sure it is worth the upgrade by forking out the extra $$$. Maybe I can save those money and buy a Sigma 35mm.
Check out his 85mm 1.4 review, http://neilvn.com/tangents/review-nikon-85mm-f1-4g/ , the bokeh is so "yum yum"...... guess that is what some of us are expecting at SG$1500 more.

Bokeh is glowy... is an old school bokeh lens.
I find that the focal length a bit strange, might as well get a 50mm f1.2 or 85mm f1.4....
+1. Not everyone knows how to appreciate this kind of bokeh.
