Very impressive results for such a fast lens me thinks.
Hum. Seems much better technically than the other 85's zeiss is producing. I wonder how it compares to the N 85 design wise. Bit perplexed by how zeiss chooses which design to use for which system. (the 50 for the N system is also a bit different than the other 50's they are producing).

Maybe N lenses are still under contract by Contax
Optics look flawless but I don't think I could convince myself to spend that kind of $$$ for a lens without IF and SSM.

IF shoudln't be a deal breaker, IMO. Don't forget that IF essentially makes a prime a varifocal, or even a zoomlens (automatically, with focusing rather than exact control) <img src='http://forum.photozone.de/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

for the example shots do you pop the pictures into acr and then, using adobe's standard settings only, the picture pops out - or you put a bit of effort into it?
