Hi Popo,

I carried out some extensive street and indoor testing over several hours with the Zeiss 25,28,35 and 50/1,4 - when I analyzed the pictures later, I found the 50/2 the best, with edge-to edge sharpness at F2 onwards. This was confirmed recently when a specialist dealer in Berlin (Monochrom) told me that the 50/2 and the 100/2 are the best of the Zeiss bunch.



It could be that the flaws in the Canon 50/1.8 show up more on a 5D MKII, making the Zeiss appear better, but it could also be that you have a bad copy (even though I'm told that there shouldn't be noticeable quality variations in Zeiss products). You might need to try another copy if you are really not happy.
