Pros: Impeccable construction, very high detail of the files; absolute excellence. 'And my goal, in the non-action photo, except for precise directions to use something else.

Cons: A certain cumbersomeness having to apply it to the more than disengage from the machine body.

Opinion: I think it's the best when it's 50mm. it proposes itself as a focal point that best expresses photographically what we have in mind; it is also proposed in Nikon. In no way is there a lack of autofocus; automatic magnification is of incredible simplicity and precision. I could replace it only by switching to the digital mediumform that just mediumformed then is not but that undoubtedly something more gives than the 24 x 36 mm.

Pros: Construction, compactness, weather resistance, sharpness, "zeiss pop", fire ring, *real* field depth scale, mechanical focus, electronic contacts for exif data and focus, decryptable diaphragm. It's worth every penny it costs.

Cons: A little complicated to screw and detach from the machine body, a little chromatic aberration up to f/2.8 on high contrast parts

Opinion: Excellent optical performance on the A7RII's 42mp: excellent sharpness that, at intermediate diaphragms, covers the entire frame to the extreme angles without the problem of diffraction up to f/16; absence of vignetting; intense and deep colors (typical Zeiss!), nothing to do with a certain third-party brand that goes out of fashion and that returns sharp but sloppy images. Bokeh "tending" to the hard but still pleasant with well differentiated plans. State-of-the-art anti-glare treatment. A bit of chromatic aberration at the highest diaphragms on high contrasts but it's the price to pay for the Pop Zeiss. Fluid and very precise focus; with the automatic magnification of the image, possible thanks to the contacts that the lens is equipped with, it is also very fast. The construction is at the top for materials and assembly, it is built as every lens should be built, except for one detail: the focus ring covers almost the entire barrel and it becomes a little difficult to grab it to detach (or reattached) it from the machine body. Maybe a stunt to make sure he doesn't get away from it anymore! :)

Pros: Sharpness high, opening of the shadows and definition of shadow detail, detachment of the plans, soft blur, risolvenza exceptional ring focusing fluid and very precise, the absence of loca, ease of manual focus, exceptional resistance to flare, made on the lights point and in night scenes at the highest levels

Cons: some field curvature that causes objects to 'infinity do not go in perfect focus even at f11, but the sharpness of the first floors of those in the middle distance is such that it seems to look with your own eyes

Opinion: It goes a little understood, but it is a slow fantastica.rnLa depth of field is very small with a considerable detachment of piani.rnPer my way of photographing you need from f5.6 onwards. Collects an amount of detail that does not believe his eyes .... something never seen in any 'other lens that I have tried. L 'opening of the shadows and the definition of shadow detail is outstanding. Proven in night scene .... a definition from spettacolo.rnCertamente is less planar Zeiss Planar 1.4 50 but his IQ does soon dimenticare.rnLa resistance to flare is something incredible. You can not get to f14 without influence diffrazione.rnLa sharpness is indistinguishable between the center and edges estremi.rnLa fluidity and precision of the ring focus is superb in true style Zeiss, there is no comparison with respect to that of the Sony 55 1.8 ZA.rn
