[Author Prev] [Author Next] [Thread Prev] [Thread Next] [Author Index] [Topic Index] [Home] [Search]I shots a few photos with the Nokton 50/1.1, Summilux 75/1.4, and the Zeiss 85/2 wide open last night. You can see a sample or two on the last post I made re: "IMGs: Family" Some photos you won't see, for example, the 85/2. Why? Because even at wide open, it's so deadly sharp that you point that thing at any women over 20 and they may break your lens, and camera. I had a 90/2 AA once (this 85/2 is a replacement), and I don't recall it being this sharp at this close distance (5 feet). The color is also definitely different. The Zeiss is slight redder, while the Nokton and the 'lux less red (than what I see with my eyes). Quite educational in terms of the color rendition. p.s. I know why I don't bother with testing focus shift on the Nokton 50/1.1 - that lens only get used on 1.1 or 1.4 at most :-) so I don't right care if the focus shift somewhere else... -- // richard <http://www.imagecraft.com/> blog: < http://imagecraft.wordpress.com> // portfolio: <http://www.imagecraft.com/pub/PICS/AnotherCalifornia2> // mailing lists: <http://www.imagecraft.com/contact.html> [ For technical support on ImageCraft products, please include all previous replies in your msgs. ]
