Dear Soeren,I found the zeiss lenses easier to focus because of the way the image just jumped into sharpness
Exactly. It's hard to explain until you've seen it.
Cheers,

"they are very easy to focus even on an AF body ..."
I do not get meaning of that. What is a difference with manual lens focusing on non- and autofocus camera. Might be I am missing sometingwww.Leica-R.com

Auto-focus SLR's including digital models do not in general have focusing screens that have focusing aids in the middle, such as split-prism, etc., therefore it is harder for some people to accurately manually focus.
I just read in Shutterbug about the newer Zeiss lenses for the Nikon "F" Mount. Anybody tried them out, seen them?
I'm kind of intrigued by the 100mm Macro lens but I'm sure it's pretty expensive. I'm curious if it is really much better then the Nikkors.
Well, "ZAS" finally did take over and I took the plunge and got the 100mm Macro f2......
Mounted it up on my FE2 and shot off a roll of Portra 160vs on the flowers in my wife's flower garden.
The roll is going off to A&I tommorow so we'll see how they turn out!
(and yes, I did wait until the wife had come home from shopping for shoes and clothes......)![]()
Half a dozen advertisers, I think all from Hong Kong, have appeared on eBay advertising that they had them in stock. Prices looked to be not that much higher than comparable Nikkors. Just use a search string something like "Nikon 85mm f1.4" and one or more that size should pop up.
