TTA @ F2
ZM @ f1.4 + pcx
@Jonas B, I'll get you a better comparison later if you need it but I think it's basically what we expected.
TTA does well imo, a touch murkier, but still pretty clean, blends more.
Quite similar background blur style, ZM might have stronger lines, I know those rings on the chair annoy me a bit more with the ZM.
ZM has this quite strong central hotspot (brightness) that helps with subjects around the center, significantly reduces by f1.6 and becomes more uniform but I think it works well. CV 40mm f2 ultron (f-mount) has the same thing at f2 and can be quite annoying, I found a radial mask reducing exposure helps fix it, so one increasing exposure centrally might add with images like this. I'm not sure if that fully explains it and the TTA might have its own hotspot that I've forgotten about, or is less apparent.
Should have probably taken a snap at f2 for the zm too but I was following your instructions! (-ish).
If you'd like a better comparison I can get it for you, but let's not put a date on it
Full-size:
Would have been nice to have the Simera 35 to compare too, and some sun. I think the Simeras flare quite a bit, ZM does not.
Simera 50 feels tiny after using the ZM, I think the 35 is a hair shorter too.
50 simera - got it quite late yesterday and it gets dark early here now, around iso320-400 1/60
^ simera 50 shots that might shed (some) light on a 35mm in case you missed the notice above. He refused to look my way.
But I think I was right with my prediction that I enjoy bite on a 35mm. It makes it feel less like a 35mm in a weird way. I probably don't need it on a 50 (though maybe sonar 50 for film (? not sure) ...or if I was doing this professionally...).
TTA has a good amount imo, a safer amount for people probably.
Flares and contrast with the simeras in bright light can be an issue with my limited testing, But for low light indoors/a restraunt for example, pretty compact, and it's f1.4 and I expect a tad wider than the TTA.

^ simera 50 shots that might shed (some) light on a 35mm in case you missed the notice above.
But I think I was right with my prediction that I enjoy bite on a 35mm. It makes it feel less like a 35mm in a weird way. I probably don't need it on a 50 (though maybe sonar 50 for film).
Flares and contrast with the simeras in bright light can be an issue with my limited testing, But for low light in a restraunt for example, pretty compact, and it's faster than f1.4 and I expect a tad wider than the TTA.
I just imported and exported, as the profile doesn't exist for the TTA, and the ZM one I don't think fully gets rid of the vignette.
TTA @ F2
ZM @ f1.4 + pcx
@Jonas B, I'll get you a better comparison later if you need it but I think it's basically what we expected.
TTA does well imo, a touch murkier, but still pretty clean, blends more.
Quite similar background blur style, ZM might have stronger lines, I know those rings on the chair annoy me a bit more with the ZM.
ZM has this quite strong central hotspot (brightness) that helps with subjects around the center, significantly reduces by f1.6 and becomes more uniform but I think it works well. CV 40mm f2 ultron (f-mount) has the same thing at f2 and can be quite annoying, I found a radial mask reducing exposure helps fix it, so one increasing exposure centrally might add with images like this. I'm not sure if that fully explains it and the TTA might have its own hotspot that I've forgotten about, or is less apparent.
Should have probably taken a snap at f2 for the zm too but I was following your instructions! (-ish).
If you'd like a better comparison I can get it for you, but let's not put a date on it
Full-size:
Would have been nice to have the Simera 35 to compare too, and some sun. I think the Simeras flare quite a bit, ZM does not.
Simera 50 feels tiny after using the ZM, I think the 35 is a hair shorter too.
50 simera - got it quite late yesterday and it gets dark early here now, around iso320-400 1/60
