I see some beautiful shots in this thread with this lens and the Z6. I'm thinking about getting this lens but it'll be paired with a Z7 instead. Anyone have any experience with this combo and how they pair with one another? Any info would be appreciated. Thanks.
The Neo-Noct has taken pride of place as the 'standard' lens on my Z7. As many often say, it is Two primes in One. The 3-d rendering supremo described by it's designer (Haruo Sato) but when shut down under f4, it gives an impressively sharp optic with beautiful rendering.
As you say, the images here and worldwide speak for themselves :-) And you have probably seen the links above, on page 62, including posts #8 and #13 and following with links about bokeh etc
Thanks. I wasn't sure if the image quality that the 58mm f1.4 creates with a high MP camera body like the Z7 and D850 was still up to par.
If the sharpness as per MTF charts is the only criteria then the 50/1.4 Art or 50/1.8S is a better choice. But the 58G is a lens you fall and in love with as it is very unique with many differing personalities. As mentioned the 58G stopped down is sharp and for my last 2 trips to Spain I kept it on my D850/D810 stopped down around f/5.6-7.1 for all my street shots. The 58G at these f stops presents images more like paintings and just a great alternative to the very sharp new lenses.
