Here is one comparison between the D800E and the S2:

Lloyd Chambers was even more skewed in favour of the D800 with Zeiss glass
in a comparison he did, but that is on a pay site, calling the Nikon a
standout winner. The combos he used were Nikon D800 (not D800E) + Zeiss
100mm f2 Macro Planar vs Leica S2 + Leica 120mm f2.5 APO-Macro-Summarit-S.

OTOH Leica claims the S lenses will be a good match for the next 2
generations of sensors.
