You never know what will happen. I intended to buy a classic Carl Zeiss 35mm F/2 ZF2 which is suitable for my taste. Eventually, a Milvus 35mm F/2 bought instead.

Congrats on the new lens, great color and composition.
Out of curiosity, how is the zoom stiffness? I find my 85 milvus to be tight with a lonnng travel-- perfect for dialing in portraits. My 35 classic however is a bit more loose and faster for action shots and more dynamic situations. I'm not sure how I would fare in those if my 35 was similar in feel to the 85.
Thanks Ahghd.
Not so many experience on CZ lenses but would share what I can. I've Otus 55, Milvus 35, macro 100 and Apo 135. By this order, stiffness from lightest to hardest.

Cool cloud formation on #2. I was in Saigon last August with my family and we loved it. Such an awesome city.

Thanks for your nice comment.
And I am glad you love Saigon, the most dynamic city in Vietnam.
I took some jpgs with the intention of posting straight out of camera, so that others might see what is on offer without the flattering effects of post processing. It's all a bit b-roll, but hopefully the information is conveyed well enough.
These are stopped down, so the interest here is color; I'll follow up shortly with some wide open examples.
Quick edit of a raw from the set to compare. Don't love how Canon outputs jpg sometimes, colors can be a bit excessive. No shortage of saturation from these lenses though in raw, the only time I reach for saturation/vibrance is to tame colors from harsh light rather than adding extra.
