Hey guys sorry, been trying to put together a decent set for evaluation, been a little pressed for time though.
Early findings: yes, wide-open close-ups are sharpish, but not critically sharp. f/1.4 is a bit difficult to use on this lens up close cause of how slim the DOF is, portraits you're gonna need to stop down a little bit just to get the face sharp, not unlike the 85, but I think the rendering here is nicer. Around f/2-2.2 when it starts looking tack sharp the quality is just fantastic. I think the real sweetspot for this lens in that f/2-2.8 range, you can shoot close up portraits and still get amazing bokeh that way.
On the other hand, at f/1.4 give it breathing room and it all comes together. The rendering is gorgeous. You're gonna need to step back a little bit to make f/1.4 completely work.
