That's a surprise, Popo - I have the nifty fifty and I noticed a huge difference straight away.
I may have a bad copy of the Canon, but in terms of micro contrast, sharpness, colour and flare, my Zeiss is much better. I'm quite surpised you had any flare, because it's not a problem I've noticed at all - the same goes for purple fringing, which is really non existent on my copy. I'm wondering now if it's to do with the sensor size or variations in examples.
But give it some time, it should be a very good companion.
