Some market shots to determine if this lens is a keeper or not. It is not sharp wide open at 1.2 - not sharp, but usable. Stopping down seems to improve the situation - it is not a clinically sharp modern optic. I guess shot more for its look/character. As these are all wide open I will get around to shooting some exclusively at f2. In the hand it is a weighty lens, feels nice and solid with sure aperture clicks and smooth focussing. Thinking about it - jury is still out for me.
Brief interlude... Monk in a case with incoming daylight @ f1.4?
Back to the market theme, but this time an evening clothing, fashion accessory, and food market shot f2.0...
