highdudgeon Posted July 30, 2007 Share #1 Posted July 30, 2007 Advertisement (gone after registration) Sorry for double-posting, but this is a pressing decision, as I am about to take a long trip with my family! I'm looking for some feedback on these lenses. The short story is that I sold off all my M equipment, including a 75 lux, some 8 years ago. I've now decided to get back in because, after borrowing a friend's camera, I found that I take more interesting pictures with the system! Anyway, I had a 75, but only briefly. It takes beautiful pictures. I found it a bit awkward, however, because it is big, block part of the viewfinder, and is heavy to use. I don't feel that, aside from ergonomics, it has any drawbacks. Also, I usually stop down. Meanwhile, in my absence the 75/2 has come out. Obviously, I haven't had a chance to use one. It is very attractive in that it has a newer design that optimizes close-up performance and the ergonomics, or at least size, are more attractive. Questions: I rarely shoot wide-open (it's not my thing) but I'm wondering what is the difference in depth of field in the 1-3 meter range between both lenses? Minimal at best? Can anyone compare the handling? Is the 75, while sharper on paper (hard to imagine!) actually "sharper" in practive? Thanks! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
