docmoore Posted October 6, 2015 Share Posted October 6, 2015 I wonder if the 55 1.4 also has the aspherical bokeh problem (tree lines)Hopefully not ... any highly corrected aspheric lens will disappoint you if this is your focus.And tree fractals are hopelessly complex nothing short of a holga does them justice .... Aspherics add a major detriment to certain objects ...which is why the Zeiss Milvus 85 has no aspheric components ... but it is not a FF lens.And if boheh is the end all for your rendering ... go with a DSO FF 85 ....

Nikkor Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 There are aspherical lenses without that problem. When you pay 4000$ it's kind of wierd but hey, maybe thats reserved for ultra primes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docmoore Posted October 7, 2015 Share Posted October 7, 2015 You are right ... now if you really want smooth ... Cooke but not FFAnd the difference is just 10K per lens for the Ulta Primes: https://www.abelcine.com/store/Arri-Zeiss-Ultra-Primes-c-926/ Bob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lafilm Posted October 8, 2015 Author Share Posted October 8, 2015 I don't like the 85mm focal length. Another reason is that there are a lot of 85 1.4 lenses that are good enough, but that 55 1.4 seems pretty special.Fair enough. The 85mm vs 50/55mm debate has been going on for 6 decades. It really is a tough call. I thought so but Zeiss representative said that Milvus line will resolve 4K and even 6K without a problem, so I just wondered if Otus line is that much better.That is true about 6K, however, the Otus line (glass elements) take this line to another level above and beyond the Milvus. Hopefully not ... any highly corrected aspheric lens will disappoint you if this is your focus.And tree fractals are hopelessly complex nothing short of a holga does them justice ....

BobBob, the Milvus lenses are full frame. I think they look great but for pure performance the full frame Otus (near Master Prime level which is S35) is superior. Now if I could figure out what focal length..and here comes the 28mm at the end of the month. docmoore 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
