And ... guess what?

 

Quote:I'm going to avoid comparing the consistency numbers, because as we've mentioned the testing for the Sony lenses is a bit different. But the variation graphs show what our photographic experience with this lens has suggested. They are pretty consistent as far as center sharpness, but as you get towards the edge, the FE 35mm f/1.4 ZA lenses are all over the place. To put it another way, none of the 10 copies we tested had even corners. And I'll editorialize and say that none of the dozens we've tested on Imatest had even corners either. If you use this lens for centered objects, you'll be happy. If you want 4 sharp corners, it's not likely to happen unless your standards for equal sharpness are pretty low.
 

Same for the Sony FE 90mm f/2.8 OSS Macro, while the Sony FE 55mm f/1.8 ZA is fine.

Now make a guess why I am waiting for my local rental guys to offer these lenses ...
