@Rusty: So in your experience all Zeiss lenses have a fast focus transition? Maybe just the ones you\'ve tried?
I think that lenses with a flat kind of rendering can make the plasticity/roundness less, because textures get underemphasized. Clarity is lost and the impression of looking at a flat image is increased.

Yes, lighting is an important depth clue. Perhaps you get most information from it when the light is directional, but still somewhat diffused so that the contrasts aren\'t too high (in which case we run into the DR limit of our vision, meaning that stuff gets filtered out).
