100mm f2.8 STF the opposite of the Nikkor 105mm f1.4? Both designed for smooth bokeh, they went a tad overboard with the aperture size, resulting in a strong swirl and quite heavy vignetting wide open for the focal length.
With this Sony, puzzled why they did not go for a f2 design. The T5.6 shows it could have made good use of an extra stop...
The Nikkor without VR for a platform without IBIS, the Sony with OSS for a platform with IBIS.
The 85mm f1.8 is a nice addition to the platform. Although the basic specs are like the Zeiss Battis 85mm f1.8, the list price is less than half and the weight is kept a bit in check.
