Some samples from very limited shooting in bad light. Processed normally for me--interested in what real world photos look like. The only thing I left off is LoCal correction (there is a fair bit WO in high contrast). Not really seeing or feeling as much SA as I recall with the 35/40/50 1.2's. Very high central sharpness and contrast--really like the colors on the newer CV glass. These are all on stock Sony.
Sunstars start at f2 and are decently defined.
Flare resistance is excellent--better than some other modern CV's. You can induce minor ghost if you really push.
Ergonomically great--one of those lenses where things just pop into focus in the EVF--very easy to manual focus.
You can make the bokeh look a bit nervous and ugly, even centrally (sensor stack indepedant) if you try. Mostly pleasant though.
Not a character lens--very balanced feel to the files. Very little magic, though I do like them. Just a solid transparent feel when processing. Very much the an all-arounder successor to the 35/1.7 in my opinion. While not perfect, my initial thought it that I am impressed and will easily prefer this lens over the ZM 35/1.5 and 35 Lux's, esp. given size and price.
Nice pics! Perhaps I missed it, but what camera did you use? And did you add vignette in PP?
Thanks! Yes, vignetting added on some. Can check how much on which tomorrow!
