Nikon 105mm f/1.4E ED vs Zeiss 85mm f/1.4 Milvus f/1.4 and f/2 (messing around)

Before anything else this is not a scientific test but I thought it might be interesting for people to see the difference between the Nikkor 105mm f/1.4E ED and the Zeiss 85mm f/1.4 Milvus.  

Well today is my birthday and it is raining so what does a person do?  Well in my case I test out my new Nikkor f/1.4E ED against my old favourite, the Zeiss 85mm f/1.4 Milvus.  This is not a scientific shoot, the setting for the first shot are slightly different but it should show the simularities and differences between the 2 lenses at f/1.4 and f/2


Lighting Bowens XMT500 with diffuser.  As these are self portraits, the images are not exactly the same (I did bring the 85mm forward a bit but didn't get 100% accurate). Editing with Capture One Pro 9 (I have reduced the first image by 0.13 exposure to try and keeps the images similar) Otherwise I have only converted them in to Jpeg.
