i had a question ive been using mark 3 for awhile and loving it .. i wanted to purchase a new lens and am confused between three lenses .. the first one is a carl zeiss 25mm f2 which has no chromatic aberration .. and second being the 16-35mm f2.8 II and third being 24-70 f2.8 II am not sure which is the best choice .. i already own a Zeiss 18mm,50mm and 85mm and a canon 70-300 L so which one would you choose out out of the three please let me know thanks
@ecking001 I'd keep the 25 and save up for the new 2.8/15. It's crazy expensive, but the examples I have seen make super-wide attractive -- the color saturation is *amazing*, the geometric distortion is only noticeable if you are doing photos of brick walls, and the images really pop. If you really need the 21-28mm focal length then definitely get the 25/2, as the chromatic aberration control improves apparent depth of field and focus. That makes images with lots of edges far more realistic.
2:15 The achromatism is unaffected by the shape factor of the lens. The aspheric lenses do not, directly, improve chromatic performance. If that wasn't obvious.
These lenses have a hard stop. However you cannot use it. Once reached the hard stop you will need to turn the focus ring by a 1mm or so. The lens needs that space (1mm) for contraction and expansion at changes in temperature I was told.
hahaha This thread is quite entertaining. I couldn't resist. How can anyone half serious about imaging list auto anything as a plus? Then again you have to understand where they're coming from. Manual anything usually means more work, which then gives you better results, but ultimately requires a lot more talent which i'm sure our friend know's nothing about. Which is clear by the complete lack of a defense of his like of auto features. ;)
Thanks for taking the time to respond. Your advice is actually useful, unlike most people on youtube!
Can you use manual focus points to help focus with a manual lens?
Oh man this is going to be great~
Why doesn't Zeiss make Canon lenses with manual aperture??!
That is the reason why I purchased Nikon DSLR. And with an adapter the Zeiss ZF primes are useable on Canon EF too.

Distagon and Planar lenses has the infinite focus rings or hard stop?

I'm torn between selling my zeiss 25mm f2.8 for this or the 21mm f2.8

I will sell my soul for this or the 55. Devil where are you....
LA Arboretum YAY

Sorry, but no.
