My suggestion 35mm f2 ZE Distagon. The Milvus 35/2 is essentially the same adds weather sealing and a slight change in lens coatings.
The 35/2 gave me more memorable pictures than my favourite 50/1.4 Planar. The 35/2 had more POP shots than the other Zeiss lenses. I loved the colours and rendering it gave.
I don't use the 35/2 that much as I use the 35/1.4.
Thanks! So if the Milvus and the Distagon are the same price, then I may as well go for the Milvus?
So what makes the 50mm f1.4 Planar is your favorite? Does it have nice pop to its images as well?
Lastly, are you using the 35/1.4 simply for the brighter maximum aperture? Or why use that one over the 35/2 if the latter has more "pop"?
