I’m mostly interested in the 85 and maybe a 21 down the road? I prefer manual focus purely for the experience but have not had any MF lenses since I sold my Loxia 21/85 and CV 50APO, as so many good AF options have offered straight up better optics all around since then…….maybe I shouldn’t have sold the CV 50 APO 😭
It is just so fun to be out with a manual focus prime. I like the images I get with AF lenses and of course for sports and things it’s the only way I’m getting that many keepers; but it doesn’t feel as fun without the tactile feeling of manually focusing a fully manual lens.
Maybe the Otus 85 will combine the best parts of the Sony 85 GM 1 and 2; and maybe an Otus 21 can combine the best parts of the Voigtlander 21 1.4 and Sony 20 1.8 and Sony 24 GM.
