Nice! On tap I see (the tell-tele F2 in the exif!)
One thing I've been impressed by, and I see in your images, is the bokeh at f4. It's lovely and sharp at f4, and the separation and smoothness are surprisingly nice, and make me happy to use the lens for things other than the f8 landscapes I got it for...
Thanks! I do find that, at the close to medium distances at which I prefer to photograph, I have to prefocus more frequently in order to get the TAP to within its "AF zone" than I would with a 50mm. But it's such a relief not to have to go through multiple button presses to magnify and achieve accurate manual focus. I'm also appreciating the extra reach, spatial compression, and subject isolation that an 85mm offers. There are times however that I'd like an extra stop and I'm starting to hear the siren call of the Loxia 85mm (though the bokeh won't be nearly as nice).

Why won't the bokeh on the Lox be as nice? It's a purely spherical design, no aspherics, despite its class leading MTF. I don't know if I'm personally tempted bu the new Loxia - Batis for general work and ZM for hiking is working for me - but I'm really looking forward to seeing samples. On paper the Lox looks incredible, about the best there has been at shared apertures, all with no aspherics! (There was an interview with a Zeiss guy linked on SAR in which he was going on about the incredibly pricey variants of partial anomalous dispersion glass they had to use so as to avoid aspheric elements for the sake of bokeh. So I'm interested to see if this level of performance makes a difference visible at 1:2 (my personal test of whether I care. Differences just visible at 1:1 on 42mp are interesting but don't get me tompart with hardearned; if the difference is clear at 1:2 you might just see it in a big print,,,)

Unintentionally OOF shot (premature shutter press while moving for the shot), with the Canon FL 58mm F1.2 + TAP.
I wasn't initially liking it much, because it's not what I intended, but I think it works.

Amazed to get this with handheld ZA 55/18 but that is what I had with me.

You betcha it works! I really like how the (very nearly) sharp tree trunk on the left anchors all the weirdness in the rest of the frame.

I'm not even sure now why I wrote that, given the points you've made, the fact that it's a Sonnar design, and a number of the pictures in the Dear Susan review. It can only be because I've been under a lot of pressure from my Department of Rationalization and Self-Justification, which is upset that I placed a preorder for the Loxia 85 without first getting approval. I'll send them the text of your post plus a link to the Dear Susan review and hopefully that will settle the matter.

A couple from yesterday's wedding. Seem to be using the A7rII more and more. Both of these were high ISO shots later in the evening. (4000 & 10000)

Thanks. I was initially trying to get the trunk sharp, but that lens. at 1.2 wasn't cutting it.

Has the Department prepared a report on why it's necessary to have both the Loxia and the ZM that they could forward to my Central Office for the Allocation of Resources Away from the Mortgage?
