Comments about Zeiss 35mm f/2 ZS Distagon T* Manual Focus Lens for Universal (M42) Screw Mount:

Had it for a week but returned it. Took about 200 photos and compared them to a Sigma 18-50 f/2.8 EX. Tested with sigma SD14. I took photos at different apertures of 4 motives:- flower closeup (zeiss slightly better, almost no difference)- a bike (no difference)- backyard (sigma better)- thermometer/numbers (no difference)Manual focusing is not that hard. That wasn't the problem. Also the Sigma SD14 wasn't the problem.great: - build quality is outstanding (metal) - focus ring is perfect to handle not so great: - inconsistant output(straylight problems) - blue shifted color / photos look kind of cold - low value/price ratioI really wanted the Zeiss 35 f/2 and i gave it 4 trys but only the flower close-up convinced me. Not enough for [$]. I expected much better image quality. I will look into the new sigma lenses.
