Has anyone directly compared the CY 28/2.8 to the Nikon Ai-s 28/2.8?
I haven\'t, but from the various pics I\'ve seen online, my Nikon is equal to or possibly nicer than the Zeiss.
Pics, please.
Both are incredibly sharp, corner-to-corner, both have pretty low distortion, and both are slightly lacking in color saturation.
C/Y 28/2.8 center sharpness doesn\'t really change that much from wide open to stopped down, but the corners improve dramatically by f/8. Center sharpness is excellent, and corner sharpness is very good. The corners will show CA in high-contrast situations.
There is no way the C/Y 28/2.8 is lacking in colour saturation. I\'ve owned a few copies of this lens (can\'t seem to get it out of my system), and it has the Zeiss colour signature all over it: inky blacks, excellent tonality, the images just pop.
