It's seemed to me that is the pancolar (greenish) very much than the planar (very redish).

Rino.

A distinction must be made between Zeiss Jena and Zeiss Oberkochen.
I find Zeiss Jena a bit on the warm side (not much)
Zeiss Oberkochen for me are in the middle, colder than Nikkors and warmer than Leicas.
I like Oberkochen colours the best for overall use, and Leica colours for portraits.

Yes, Orio. I agree, specially in the leica's R colors (in M series is another thing).

But in the indicated page, that surely you already know, is displayed a test in which planar 50/1.7 is very warm and pancolar 50/1,8 enough cold.
Of there my astonishment, I raise for that reason it here. It should be a copy problem of the lenses?

It might be a difference in the daylight temperature. It can change very quickly. And on white objects, such as that window frame, you notice even the smallest changes a lot.
On other colours, and especially on mixed colours, daylight differences are less immediately perceptible.
