Wayne! Life is short! You will love the lens. And even if there will be a ZE in the future I doubt it will be sub 1000 US...
Welcome!
Thanks teh_Rebel and Andreas!
Nice portraits everyone, subject really pops out from background.
Also, great flower shots Andreas, I like the first one the best.
I just got my lens this morning and only got to click off a couple of shots and they looked great.
Thanks Brad for the super quick delivery!
Hope to post some shots soon.

I really like the first flower shot too. I mostly shoot at f/1.4 but these lenses can produce stunning results stopped down too.

This thread and this lens should be made illegal. My 35/2 hasn't arrived yet and I'm finding myself looking at ebay auctions of the 35/1.4.
Great shots Anden
Thanks! And for the record. A 35/2 is not a 35/1.4. You should have both. I might get the ZE 35/2 too :-) Already have the Canon 35/2.

I understand why people are paying 1000 Euros+ for this lens on evilbay. I give you two ordinary shots.
No offense, and it's not jealousy speaking either, but those shots don't scream "look, taken with a 35mm Zeiss that cost $xxxxx"
I agree that some lenses shine - but most of the time, it's the choice of subject, and great light that makes a shot. Great light with a mediocre lens will imho outshine a flat, grey light shot with an expensive lens.
