Due to smaller tolerances in new production process and different lens coating, the new one is better. Although I usually follow his recommendations, in terms of Noctilux I decided, I will try new one vs old (first series). New Noctilux give me a little to “harsh” images in the range of apertures 5.6 to 11 (who uses the lens in that aperture anyway?). Then I decided on old version. This is personal opinion, and I know other people like new production look. But, everyone hates lens shade on new one.
