Rover ... I was expecting them to try for f/1.0, though. For bragging rights if nothing else (though that wouldn't have been the truth anyway). https://www.sigma-global.com/en/lenses/a024_50_12/ EPZ is already out with a review. https://www.ephotozine.com/article/sigma-50mm-f-1-2-dg-dn-art-lens-review-36845 Looking sweet, and not that expensive for what it is (and what it does)... P.S. Posting in Sony forum because, while this lens is available in L-mount, it is not covered here, so might as well just limit it to the E-mount board...
me I'd guess, they don't take RSAs into account. The basically "flat" portion from f/5.6 to f/16 is not how diffraction works. Just my 2c, of course
Rover It should not fall off so much by f/5.6 I guess? Anyway, their results have been called iffy before (mostly as in "it's just too good to be true", though).

Maybe the aperture mechanism is flawed and we see real f/8.0 instead of indicated f/16. Anyway, strange to release such a graph w/o comments.
