Max! I have not had any issues with either CA or sharpness stopped down. Maybe I will encounter it later.

You might be right about the colors. I have to little experience so far.

There certainly is a little CA in this lens when you shoot it at 21 Mpixel. It's on a par with the 35L in that regard.

Of course there is some CA. But I have not had any problems because the amount is fairly low. If I recall correctly the 35L has a bit more but I might be wrong.

Ouch, that is as much as what the Contax version goes for, right?
I'll wait for the ZE version.
Andreas, didn't you pay almost half of that for your copy?

The Rollei is rarer so it might fetch as much or more than the Contax. I got a true bargain Wayne.

Ffordes has a CY "just in" for just under a grand US (at the current exchange rates).

Having tested a 35L against a good Contax I can say with confidence that the corners at f1.4 are sharper on the 35L. However, for me that is not the whole story, and I sold the 35L because (a) the Contax has an excellent manual focus ring which is crucial for this kind of lens and (b) I slightly prefer the Contax's less smooth boke: it defines more sharply the edges of highlights.


How did the corners compare stopped down? Corner sharpness is not really important at f/1.4 to me...
