B.D. Colen,
>>The Nikkor 85f1.4 AF....are sharp as a proverbial tack.<<
>>The "finger print" of the Nikon lens is virtually identical<<
>>to that of the 75 Summilux<<
Very impressive summary of the Nikkor 85 f1.4 features. I've
seen results from a 75 Summilux.......quite beautiful!
Integrating all the great comments to date; I'm closer to trying
to decide between the Nikkor 85 f1.4 & the R-80 f1.4 lenses.
I've got the impression that the 85 Contax f1.4 is softer at the
wider apertures ( f1.4 thru f2 ) than either of the above lenses.
And that both the Nikkor & the Leica maintain the great "bokeh" ;-)!
Thus, leaving the focal length delta ( 5mm ) & AF as independent
variables.
A fair conclusion? LUGmates!
