Thank you :)

 

Unfortunately I was sick and I missed Photokina :/

 

However, I will be in Wetzlar sometime next week and can provide some sample images as well we preliminary feedback on the lens.

 

I'll try and make some quick and dirty comparisons with the SL 50/1.4 vs M-50/1.4ASPH and M-50/2APO. Obviously won't be scientific but I'll do it for whatever it may be worth.

To come back to comparing the SL50/1.4 with the other lenses, I was advised to wait till December. The firmware for the lens is not final yet and hence none of the usual suspects have been able to release the first test images/reviews either.

Hi !

I am waiting and hope the comparisions between SL 50 Lux 50 f1.4 vs M 50 f2 and M Apo 50 f2 on SL 601 coming soon!

Have a nice day!

Phongph!

That's already suspect that the lens needs a final firmware in order to test its optical performance. I understand the firmware requirement for autofocus, but it shouldn't have any impact on the image quality, unless of course there is considerable software correction applied. I guess it doesn't matter if the results are good, but a 50mm really shouldn't require much software correction.

Jan1985's pictures (the magical one above, for example) have done me in. I just bought the lens. I've had the M Monochrom since it came out, and it makes beautiful images with the SX 35 & 50 ASPH and so on, but now it has found its perfect match. Seeing is believing.

Thanks for the appreciation. But I don't see my pictures that good... :-) All the others here do pretty and nicely work...
