CZJ PRAKTICAR (Flektogon) 35mm F2.4 Dismantle/Adapt for 5DII
Comparison between my three 35mms. Taken within 10 mins of each other, again of my \"test\" tree, at 250\' from my window.
As I thought when I saw the first results, the results are close. The Contax (as expected) gets 1st place for its clarity, and the Canon just edges the Prakticar into 3rd place.
However, both the Prakticar and the Canon are far easier to nail focus with than the F3.4 Contax. The Prakticar has cooler colours than the other two (which are equally warm), and it absorbs ~ ½ stop more light.
The results could equally be from edges or corners, all great with these three at F8 I\'m surprised that the Prakticar does so well at near ∞, as its claim to fame is with close subjects.
Prakticar 35.2.4 @F8 Centre 1:1 (100%)
Canon FD 35/2.8 @F8 Centre 1:1 (100%)
Contax Vario-Sonnar 35-70/3.4 @F8 Centre 1:1 (100%)
