Re: How many people still buy F mount for their Z cameras? | |

There are still some gaps in the Z lens lineup that are best filled with F mount lenses. I'm happy with my 28/1.4, 58/1.4, 105/1.4 and 200/2 F mount lenses and it remains to be seen if their Z mount replacements will be better... when and if they arrive.
The reality is those 4 lenses while definitely unique and very good optically, are not going to be as optically perfect as any Z designs that ultimately replace them. However, optical perfection is overrated, as is corner to corner sharpness. And in no way does “optically superior” mean one will prefer the output from any potential replacements. I for one am super satisfied with the rendering of my 58 and 105, and may snag the 28 just because. I pass on the 200 simply due to its size, but love and respect the look it renders!
