Between the poor processing (for both films and the digital files) and the vast difference in the lenses comparisons are a bit pointless for these images. For these images I probably would have tried 2500 ISO and up and maybe some filtering for all the films/sensors. Personally, I don't like the old Noctilux with the MM that much at low ISO. With the sensor outresolving the wide open lens to that degree, and so much of the image OOF, the smoothness becomes excessive. With the new Noctilux it might well be different, as it is with the Summilux ASPH. There the parts of the image near the center that are in focus are sharp, and the sensor can make use of that. In these images, the film just looks somewhat murky and lacks the crispness (with grain) that HP5 can deliver so well, and that can make the images sing.
