Voigtlander Nokton 58mm vs Fuji 56mm 1.2

Hey All,

I'm currently shooting an XE-2 with a 16mm F1.4, 35mm F2 and looking to add a third lens potentially.  My local shop has a Voigtlander 58mm, this would be manual focus only and would require a metabones adapter.  I've tested the 56mm and thought it was very nice albeit expensive and slow to focus/hunt in low light.  The 56mm is 800 dollars vs $400 for the Voightlander and another $99 for the metabones.  I've always heard 58mm is amazing.

Thoughts?

Fujifilm XF 16mm F1.4 R WR Fujifilm XF 35mm F2 R WR
