Pros: As a pro I would definitely put the fidelity of the colors looks like what the human eye sees and also the ease of focusing

Cons: At the moment I can't find any

Opinion: Having found an excellent opportunity online to buy this lens that I missed to use it as a portrait, but from the photos I left in the gallery, you can use it for any other situation I am happy with the quality of the optics compared with the Yashica that I also bought, which is its competitor always 85 / f2.8 good too, but surely the fidelity of the colors that leaves the Zeiss is a little higher but certainly the silver medal goes to the Yashica Another positive note is that I have now used it with a Fuji Xt4, but I also intend to try it with the Sony at 7R3 With the Fuji already in itself releases you extraordinary JPEGs and also in this case with a very light post just to adjust the tones and frame a little better the photo come out of the exceptional shots, and clear that it is a lens to use for photos a little' posed because having the manual focus begins to be a little more complicated to go and try to catch a photo in motion, but not impossible But I will reserve to add a further review when I have also tried it on the Sony

Pros: Crisp lightweight, compact, has itself a double character, a TA pleasing bokeh, gradually yield between center and edges, as well F4 becomes a razor, has a very strong contrast type, more than 135 brother f2.8 similar to the central area of Sonnar 180, but UNIFORM as surrender between the center and edges.

Cons: 2.8 out of a 85mm is a bit 'closed for certain portraits .....

Opinion: Lens that I "dodged" for a long time, crushed in the park between the Contax Planar Planar 100 85 F1.4 and F2, it happened to me in hand recentemnte and I upped very gritty finding it even at TA, my weak for chronic tele media made me buy less than a bancomat.rnrnNon I knew resist removal, a small "made in West Germany" which from the first shots did see what you can design with only five lenses in four groups (but classy) .rnSe can be found in a flea market not miss it, for two money you bring home a gem and if like me you have some trouble focusing with 1.4 goals with this you will not have problems, an optical antique flavor and the exemplary performance ..... rnrnPS cercatevi MTF curves of this point in the network, you'll understand what I mean ..... rn
