For a very long time, I dreamed about this lens, read forums, looked for reviews (of which there are not so many) and eventually decided to buy. The lens completely changes the idea of photos and processing. Awesome drawing, Zeiss color, (I heard a lot about it, but I didn’t think it was such a bomb.) sharpness, acceptable XA. Honestly, I don’t know what could be better than this lens, it’s perfect. I’m shooting on a Sony a57 crop and even on it the picture is very nice. It will be very interesting to try in the future on a full frame.
