I hope my S-mount copy of this lens is okay in here! Nikon S3 and Ilford HP5+ socially distanced
It is a great lens and very compact, perfect to walk around with. The construction is so simple that it's easy for even a beginner to take apart and clean (at least the S-mount version). The only downsides are the pincushion distortion and very minor focus shift, which are easy to work around.

A stranger's portrait at f/4 on Agfa APX 400, there is some focus shift of course with these sonnar type lenses.
Some landscapes on Ilford Delta 100, probably at f/8 or f/11.

Erik, did you use a Contax RF lens on your Nikon RF? Any focusing/mounting issues?
No, none. I focused on de beer glass. The picture is at full aperture. The bokeh is of the Sonnar is better than the bokeh of the Nikkor, but that is subjective. The Sonnar however is very heavy.
btw, the rf Nikkor 50mm f1.4 comes in many versions. The last ones are very beautiful indeed, also their bokeh.
