The shot looks pretty good to me. The large gallery view shows the important parts (eyes, forehead and whiskers) are quite clear and sharp. His closest part, the nose, is just a slight touch soft and his right ear is a little softer but that could be due to a larger aperture setting. No exif data was attached so I'm not sure.

Yeah, I focussed on the eye, and shot at f1.8 or f2. The lenses can not give any EXIF (old MF lenses, with an adapter between that tells thecamera it is a 50mm f1.4).

The color on my end looks good too. It seems you have a good match with that lens and adapter. Nice to be able to switch lenses from different manufactures.
