Wayne, yeah, I\'m a bit skeptical especially about the LoCA. Cavewalker demonstrated clearly that the Samyang produces a lot more LoCA than the 35/1.4 Distagon. And the 35/1.4 distagon produces more LoCA than the 35/2 Distagon.
In fact after looking through my 35/2 Distagon shots, I think it\'s the most LoCA free 35mm I\'ve used - including the 35 Lux ASPH.
The LoCA would be visible as green rings around the highlights in the bokeh:
And for comparison the 35/1.4:

Hmm, I really ought to use my ZE 35/2 more. It\'s a really nice lens at close to medium distances at all apertures. I was a bit disappointed by it for landscape use (stopped down & infinity) which made me neglect it for quite a while, but I should really start using it again.
