Here's the first image from the new lens, fresh out of the box
5D3, Zeiss Distagon T* 35/f1.4 , f11, 1/5sec, no ND or polarizer (plenty dark in the rain here in the Pacific NW).
Literally - secret falls has once place to photograph - a rock on the side of the river reached by a climb down a muddy slope. So no hope of moving to left which would be my ideal spot. Someone needs to cut some branches on the top left of the falls but that's about 50 feet up the slope so I will leave that to someone more clever.
All comments are appreciated (I wish this forum would permit something vertical more than 800 pixels - that compresses a lot....)
(FYI: Better specs than the Canon versions; the ZF Nikon version has better specs than the Nikon lenses. Only the New Sigma 34/1.4 has better specs for f1.4-f2.8 and not better for F4+, and the difference is in the pincushion distortion is better in Sigma for F1.4-f2.8 which is correctable in raw for zeiss lens). Sigma lens has advantage of auto focus - Zeiss is manual. Both are meter coupled, etc. Sigma lens build quality seems less well built (feels cheap to me, but I have big hands ;-) ) than the Zeiss lens. Zeiss lens NOT built in Germany - it is likely Cosina built under Zeiss design specs in China. Zeiss focusing is silky smooth and very long in turns - a joy to fine focus).
