Not my typical landscape shooting but I have been using my Loxia 21 (and Sony HVL-F45RM flash) this weekend to take interior pictures of my house since I will be listing it to sell. Not going to bore people with the images but the 21mm focal length is ideal for capturing images of rooms with minimal distortion.
Nice experience to shoot with 3 Loxias. Most likely I will not use this combo much for real shoots, the gap between 25mm and 50mm feels little bit too wide and 50mm & 85mm are little too close to each another.

Loxia 35, around the same spot: Link to photo with very soft left side
Is your Loxia 35 ok? I first looked this was focus mistake (focused too close), but then realized that infinity is not as soft as left side. Why is left side so soft?

Thanks for spotting it, I didn't see it while processing the batch...
I think there is both a focus issue and too much noise. I lifted the shadows quite heavily and the aperture is just 3.2. This one was taken in a hurry hand held because I didn't wanted to move my tripod that was set to another location. Thankfully the first one taken with the Loxia 50 was taken almost from the same spot but is much cleaner
I don't see this softness on the other pictures and the right side looks very soft too at infinity: Screenshot 2018-04-18_19-38-03 by NEMEAD, sur Flickr
