It's Sigma 70 2.8 Macro



Others are

Samyang 14 2.8

Zeiss 85 1.4

Zeiss 138 1.8

Minolta 200 2.8HS



But the weather is so cloudy that I don't even want to exit my house today.

Assuming we're talking optical quality here...



I did have 5, but now I only have 3 as two of them turned into 3.5* when tested on the D7000..!!

...and I'm awaiting reviews on the 50 1.4G and 12-24 4G (which is my own copy just coming back from loan to Markus, so I'll really know what's what with that one..! I'm guessing it may also drop on the D7000)



All Nikon

35 1.8G DX Dropped to 3.5* on D7000

50 1.4G D7000 review pending

85 1.8D Still highly recommended

12-24mm 4G DX D7000 review pending

16-85 3.5-5.6G DX. Dropped to 3.5*

Zero, zilch, nada. Somehow I manage to shoot my stuff without spending tons of money for PZ approved glass.

Aw go on... we all need a fetish

[popo]

Of lenses I currently have, 4 lenses tested on Canon (any body) got **** or higher in optical rating.



One wasn't rated due to decentering (Sigma 150mm macro non-OS) but the Nikon format review was excellent and I think it a fair chance it would have got a high score on Canon also had it not been for the sample.

Hi



I am sort of with Sammy here. While I like PZ I don't know the ratings of my lenses and in particular don't know them by hard. I typically don't even look at the stars - I look at the graphs and samples to decide whether something is useful to me. And believe it or not, even with lenses Klaus ( and everyone else) is critical about I managed to get nice pictures from.



Take picture, print pictures, use pictures, eat pictures, enjoy pictures ...



If you have nice lenses and cameras enjoy them too. But bragging about PZ ratings is crass in my view.



I am sorry if I offended anyone. You shouldn't the above is just my current opinion and no objective truth.



Best
