There's got to be a Roger Cicala law of forum behavior to define what we've experienced with the Nokton: pre-release curiosity and hype/anticipation, early results causing disappointment and the general consensus turning negative, to the current realization that the Nokton isn't worse than its direct competitors and is considerably better in a number of aspects...
True. Still, I cannot unsee some of the shots we saw previously. I am still convinced some early copies of the CV might suffer from tilting issues resulting in abnormal FC, hence extreme border sharpness.
We know Fred's copy isn't perfectly symmetrical, but not that much, as he cannot reproduce the issue. Nor can we deny we saw weird FC in a few examples posted on other forums.
For a moment I also wondered whether that NX 50/0.95 needs calibration, but the "new" NX is a relatively old 2008 design made for old sensors and film.
Examples I have seen from the NX 75 suggest lens tech advanced enormously in the last decade.
Thanks Fred, your comparison. It was really informative!
