The 1.8 is a stunning lens in terms of value for money and with regards to image quality and sharpness. At that price point, it's kind of a unicorn. I haven't tried the 1.4, but I'm always pro bright glass for more light when needed.
Very nice and thorough comparison. The f/1.4 seems to be very good value. Only wish it had less fringing and loCA. I wonder how it performs in comparison to some of the recent third-party options.
Ngl I've been racking my head around this for weeks now and I still can't decide... like do I really need the 1.4? I do like the control ring. but I also like the metal ring on the 1.8. Hard choice when you can get. both for around the same price.

Good review! Excellent points. Subscribed. So you believe the 1.8 has more separation than the 1.4 despite being slower, because of the coatings?
I think it comes down to clearer sharper image in focus and soft bokeh.. it creates that look of better separation
Frames, can you compare the new 50mm F1.4 to the 58mm F1.4G?
Appreciate This Man!!
Thanks Ron!

Thank you! Third party 1.4 lenses are yet to appear for the Z mount though! Sigma seems to be not in the Z system
Great review... Please update review on Nikkon 85mm 1.8 S line
Yes will do…
Im intrigued by the 1.4 as i shoot a lot of people stuff and would prefer 1.4. Im mostly interested in the 35 1.4 whuch seems similar to the 50mm 1.4.
I've been using the z35mm 1.4 for a month or so. Absolutely love it.
Great review. You did not give answer in conclusion for first lens should one pick 1.4 or 1.8s.

My main objective was to confuse you. 😁👊
Please Update on new tamaron 90mm macro for Nikkon mirrorless
same demand. and please compare it with nikkor z 85mm 1.8 s and 105mm 2.8 s macro
which focuses faster, the 35mm f1.4 or the 1.8s?
Well, speed is same for both I felt. Have a look there are a lot of focus tests in this video and let me know what you think
Great
3d pop conspiracies eh!
lol reference to you know who!
@@FramesTM haha yes! Still on the fence about the 1.8 S in that regard.
Its a cheaper build thus lesser image than the 1.8,,,sure its f1.4 but too many quirky image faults why sell my superior f1.8
