Reza, so which one you like most? Its hard to judge from your pictures, they seem to be fine already no matter what lens.
All from Z 35 f/2..
frezeiss, really love those! I'd like to defend 35/2 as well - I don't think it's so bad one would definitely need to switch ('upgrade', I believe, is the wrong wording in this particular case) to 1.4 version, no matter how good the new one is. Just a different animal, in my opinion.

@ Reza. The area is called Bayah, 250 km west from the capital. Secluded beach which is excellent for long exposures. Too bad I didn't have the time to wait until sunset.
That's what I've been telling my self. A good thing I'm still trying to plug a hole in my wide angle with either the Z 18 or 21. Haven't desided yet, the 21 sure looks fabulous but at $ 1800 and 82 mm filters.. That's a lot of pain
@Nickson, actually I am very very satisfied everytime I take a shot with the f/2 and see no valid reasons to buy the new f/1.4 version. Its only an itch to try new lenses

Hi guys, it seems like my 35 1.4 has suffered CA quite a lot. Also when capturing some lighting sources (noel tree with lights), it has too many 'ghost' especially in close / medium distance. Is this normal and how to fix is ? Thank you very much.
With medium-far to far, it is good.

Jochen - Beautiful capture of light on the shot with 50MP
Lieutenant - I really enjoy your signature ( strong color and contrast ) on the series. #3 is my fav.
reza - Congrats on your 35/1.4 I think the lens will suit your style very well. Beautiful color on both shots.
Jim - Wonderful truffle shot. It reminds me of Magritte painting.
frezeis - Oh I love your zf.2 f2 shots. Beautiful color, tone, and texture. Love the first one very much.
eardrumbuz - Those frozen leaves shots are just gorgeous.
Dimitri- Nice light
Itruong - Yes, at wide aperture and pointing directly to light source in short distance is probably not the strength of 35 1.4
35/1.4 @1.4

Thanks, Akul! love the blur and 3D of your second shot..so natural and lifelike
A little OOT, I see you're a Nikon shooter, do you have the 85 G? I'm wanting a fast AF lens that is very good and renders a little more like Zeiss. I thought the new Nikkor N lenses is what I'm looking for.

Thank you !!
Lieutenant - I did not see your post when I posted. Very nice capture. I like the light of the #1, but really like the texture on the #2
frezeiss - Well, short answer is no. From Nikon, I have 24-70, 70-200, AFD 501.4, AI-S 105/f2, AI'd 55 micro f3.5. I saved up for 85G, but it has been out of stock forever at B&H. Actually when I went to B&H two weeks ago, decision was between ZF 35 1.4, and the Imported version of 85G. (That was probably part of the reason why I was compelled to 'justify' my decision on picking up 35/1.4. ) If they had genuine USA version, I was going to get the 85G instead. As I already have 35/f2, it was the logical choice. However, I was not willing to do the Import version, and I did not want to wait for 85G any more, as I already waited for a year. Store sample of 85G I tried was really a good lens, and one day, I might get that lens. However, if the rumored 85 1.8G comes out early next year, and if it is as good as the 50 1.8G's recent reputation, then I might just get the 1.8G for AF.

I agree. Up to now I have not seen a reason to switch. Of course the 35/2 can't shoot @1.4, but I hardly shoot wide open with the 35/2 at this moment, so for me it is not a problem. The other differences are very very minor and are only visible with a very thourough investigation.

Thanks Luka. I like your second one.
Regarding the 35's: nobody in here said the 35/2 is bad.
Another street shot with the 35/2:
