 I have been reluctant to use my lenses at their widest aperture because of my obsession with sharpness and clarity.  I know this is not the accepted artistic norm for photography but I have a tendency to swim upstream while everyone else is gliding effortlessly down.

Introducing the Zeiss ZF 85mm Planar 1.4

Many people are not impressed with the performance of the Zeiss 85 but I really like it. I have had the lens for a few years, I should have learned how to use it sooner because it has some very sweet qualities.


Here is an example at 1.4
and another

and just one more

There is more fun to be had with this lens. Maybe it will end up on the selective list again!
Until then, stay focused!
