Pros: Opening, sharpness (already good at TA, exceptional closing a little), colors, three-dimensionality, MAF precision (albeit manual), feeling of solidity, anti-reflective treatment Zeiss T
Cons: weight (but good glass and metal weigh!), original expensive lampshade, closing the overflow diaphragm (but here I would say it's more of a fault of the cameras than the lens!), difficulty focusing from eye with reflex, minimum distance of MAF a little high, not having it
Opinion: After a long and patient search to find "the deal", purchased used (of course, it's a lens of the 70s!) with C/Y attack: perfect, but had the diaframmi diaframmi a hardened thread, but with a visit from my trusted photo-repairer and 30th of spending came back as it came out of the factory. I use it with a chip-free adapter (16th on Amazon) on the Canon 5D mark II (no compatibility issues; with the Zeiss Planar 50mm f/1.4 I had to trim a millimeter of the internal diaphragms stick, which skimmed the plastic near the contacts). What to say: from the very first shots, he paid off my expectations in full. The detachment of the planes is exceptional, the progression of the blurry (beautiful) is soft and delicate. At TA is really a "magical" lens for portraits and still life, literally "detach" the subject from the background. Shooting in live view, I've never had any problem focusing on individual eyelashes (I guess with mirrorless scope magnification is even easier); obviously the speed of execution is lower than a lens with AF, but you know it when you buy it. Also exceptional for landscape, where closing the diaphragm (usually in this area I use it at f/5.6-F/8, except for particular "excursions" to more closed diaphragms for matters of depth of field), you can take advantage of its fantastic chromatic rendering (I made sunsets and "blue hours" FANTASTIC) and the exceptional sharpness (with Canon 5D II, at 200m easily accounts the bricks of a wall, enlarging the image to 100%. The impression is that it can comfortably solve even much denser sensors, but I have never tried). It's weigh-in (the difference with the 50mm f/1.4 is perceptible, holding the machine around your neck), but nothing shocking, you can safely bear it. Is the purchase worth it? If you know what you buy, yes, 100%. 9.5 and not 10 just for the slightly "uncomfortable" and expensive lampshade. |
