2 shots focused on the wrong eye, my daughter seems to have started turning to the right just as i'm taking the picture. first is the rokkor 58/1.2 second is the canon FL 55/1.2.

my feeling in general has always been the focus falloff of the rokkor handles these kind of issues better.



Absolutely amazing!

I borrowed a friends Nikon 58 mm 1.2 for a wedding (dangerous move, that lens is addictive).


The road to (financial) hell is paved with good-intention borrowed lenses.

That Revuenon looks very interesting. I really like the last two.

indeed, it gives a very nice stylized look. how does it compare contrast wise to your rokkor?

I did a small comparsion yesterday while on my lunch...Both lenses are about the same sharpness in the center, but the Rokkor has the def win on the sharpness to the corners! I will try to post some later...
Meanwhile, here are some shots from today with the Revuenon...

Dammit...my bad!
The Rokkor wins just by a touch WO, and I have to say they are pretty close by 2.8. I'm off today, so I'll see if I can't get some pics up.

THIS IS THE BEST THREAD! Are there any sharper 1.2's other than the 85L?
What do you guys think has been the sharpest best bokeh so far?

Just sold my Canon 50mm 1.0 which appears to lack representation in this thread. Here are some of examples shot at 1.0:
