Nice work, and beautiful models!
I see you have worked at large apertures (f/1.4 or f/2)
Try some portraits at f/4 also, you'll be amazed at the definition and the bokeh will improve too (wide open the lens suffers from fringing)
I use this lens (or better said the Contax version) wide open only when I have a controlled background that I know will not create much problems.
Most of the times I use it from f/2.8 to f/5.6, which also helps with rendering dimensionally.

Thanks, Orio.
That's right, I'm always use f/1.4 or f/2.
I use 4 or 5.6 for studio portraits or when I use Carl Zeiss 180/2.8
