Double Negative Posted October 19, 2011 Share #1 Posted October 19, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hey gang! FYI, just posted today - the Zeiss Planar T* 2/50 ZM lens review. "The Zeiss Planar T* 2/50 ZM lens compares directly to the Leica Summicron 50mm f/2 in many ways. They're of the same focal length and speed, neither lens utilizes aspherical elements and both offer fantastic (if not identical) image quality." Enjoy, everyone! In case you missed it, these other ZMs were previously reviewed: Zeiss Biogon T* 2,8/25 ZM Zeiss Biogon T* 2/35 ZM Zeiss C Sonnar T* 1,5/50 ZM More on the way...

MarkP Posted October 31, 2011 Share #7 Posted October 31, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) Mate nice review but members on this forum will never admit acknowledge a great non-Leica lens here. I have a 1.5/50 C-Sonnar and newly acquired 4.5/21 Biogon. These are in addition to 1.4/21 Summilux ASPH, 1.0/50 Noctilux and 1.4/50 Summilux ASPH lenses within the same focal length. I consider the Zeiss lenses to be different, not inferior. Personally, the Sonnar suits what I need more that the Planar: fast, light , and a very different rendering to the Summilux.

Personally, the Sonnar suits what I need more that the Planar: fast, light , and a very different rendering to the Summilux. I'd have to agree... It's not so much a direct competition as they all have their own signature. In some cases it's a bit more blurred (e.g. Planar vs. Summicron) but say, the Sonnar and Summilux - wildly different beasts. They all have their purpose - which is good, as I like lenses.
