want to start by saying that I fully acknowledge that these near-thumbnails that we have to put up do not allow reliable comparison between.
Further I have yet to search out the files to which I am referring
But some OTUS images posted here by some fellows appear to have far more contrast and micro-contrast than the sets here
I know, far cheaper, etc I'm not dissing you or the lens. just voicing an opinion that I reserve the right tot change if i fine the OTUS images and change my mind
But I'm lazy these days...
OK, went and looked. Impression confirmed.
That does not mean it's not an excellent lens
The OTUS is one of those tools that makes images so sharp that you can't help but pause to check metadata to be sure. S2 was like that too.. even more so.
Here's a shot of my girl at F2.4
Focus is still a bit hit & miss, but this frame is very sharp across her eyes.
FWIW, poor little thing is a bit nervous about her kindy graduation and tight lipped - couldn't buy a smile ! )
