It is not that an old lens, it is from the generation of the Canon EF 200mm f2.8 L USM (and Nikon 180mm f2.8). And these lenses have great contrast.



I have an old Color Foto magazine from 2001. In it they test a.o. 200mm teles:

* Canon EF 200mm f2.8 L USM II

* Minolta AF Apo 200mm f2.8 G

* Nikkor AF 180mm f2.8 IF-ED

* Zeiss Sonnor T* 180mm f2.8



All 4 are sharp, the Canon and Minolta score 22 points out of 30, the Nikon 21 and the Zeiss 20.

Contrast, the Canon scores 30 out of 30, the Nikon 29, the Minolta 28 and the Zeiss 27.

Distortion, Minolta 10 out of 10, Canon, Nikon and Zeiss 8.

Vignetting, the Canon scores 9 out of 10, the Nikon, Minolta and Zeiss 8.



All in all, a great group of lenses who do not have to hide for the newest designs. And they are so much lighter and compact compared to the 70-200 f2.8 zooms...
