Ric: I'm really enjoying these. My own 35/1.2 Nokton just got back from Photovillage, where the back guard was replaced so it can focus to infinity on the M8. None too soon, as there will soon be plenty of available darkness up here. I know what you mean about these fast lenses capturing details where you can't see--I keep marveling at that myself.
The 35/1.2 Nokton is becoming a real favorite of mine. Not just because it's fast, but because it combines speed and clarity with a bit of classic lens "look." Definitely a lens with an "it" quality.
