Pros: Image quality and construction, compactness and lightness (for a traditional construction view)

Cons: A little limited focal focus, not bright

Opinion: Exceptional optics, featuring a fantastic Zeiss image, a zoom comparable to fixed optics. Construction, fluidity, mechanical precision of other times (I've got it since 1994 and have turned half a world). After using it on Contax bodies I now use it on the mirrorless Sony with great satisfaction. Faults, relative: 1) is not very bright and 2) the starting point at 35 reduces its use. I do not consider it, at least for my photography style, a real "everything to do", it should start at least 28 (a wide angle behind, in addition to this, I always wear it). However, they are both factors that allow it to be compact and lightweight (lightweight for a built-in optics as it should be, clear that weighs more than one of the plastic zoom kits).

Pros: Goal from the splendid performance, allows use without any limitation to any diaphragm, rather compact offers a constant aperture to vary the focal length.

Cons: excursion a bit 'limited

Opinion: A perspective that I have long avoided owning a large fleet of fixed lenses, yet loves nature photography one "short" zoom in addition to a "long" (the 80-200f4 for Contax) allowed me to shoot with greater accuracy avoiding the frame to crop the files.rnrnHa a truly remarkable performance, is the zoom range is limited, but compared al28-85 weighs VERY dmeno and offers the highest performance in the center of the diaphragm which makes it perfect epr fei portraits educated at flight....
