Rated 5 out of 5

Fun and beautiful

This is my first all-manual lens. It takes some practice, and it forces you to shoot in a more manual fashion. You're not going to get every shot, especially moving subjects (I'm sure I'll get better at this over time), and especially when you have the aperture fairly open. I just shot street photography for three days in NYC and mainly shot from the hip at f/8 or f/11 and used the focus range markers to get mostly everything >8-10 ft away in focus. When you do get the shot, it is beautiful and you feel that you truly own it. On top of that, it's built like a tank and is a piece of art in itself. I really enjoy it (and find myself using it more often than my Sony 35 f/2.8 w/ AF).

excellent all around lens

The lens is easy to focus since it is mechanically controlled. It has good color rendition and the bokeh is smooth. I like this better than working with any of the auto focus options, since I do a lot of video where I want good manual focus capabilities.

Superb lens

I would have given this lens 4.5 stars or higher if there weren't such noticeable barrel distortion. It's totally corrected by a profile in Lightroom but once you notice it, you keep seeing it, particularly in the viewfinder. Images, especially on the 42Mpx sensor of the A7Rii, are tack-sharp with fantastic contrast and colour. The bokeh is pleasing, flowing and very satisfactory, particularly with shorter subject distances (closest focusing distance around 29cm, 11.3") Because it's manual-only you ideally need to be in shooting situations where you have the time and sufficient light to get the focus. The time parameter to get the shot is helped by using the distance scale on the focusing ring first and then focus peaking and magnification make getting sharp images in short order a breeze. I love the aperture ring and wish more modern lenses came with this function. It helps to get the shot you want and I find connects you to the lens more directly than using one of the dials; also, having an aperture ring frees up a dial for another function! I prefer using manual lenses on my Sony A7Rii and the combination with the Zeiss Loxia 35mm (and the 50mm too) is a perfect match. It's small, light and always ready to get the shot you want. Because the lens is manual focus only the only situation in which I've wished for autofocus has been when shooting something that's moving quickly. This is more of an art lens I feel than a photojournalism lens, and choose my subjects accordingly. I have been more than pleased with the results.
