While this FL doesnt interest me , what peaks my interest is the 100/2 in the EF mount , Im having a tough choice deciding between it & the Canon 100 2.8 IS , yes the price difference is huge , and perhaps the canon is a true 1:1 macro whereas the zeiss is not , but I love the way the zeiss images look.

A few queries , will the canon 1.4x extender work with the zeiss lens ?

No idea. It might fit. Check here:

Yes, of course.

BTW, the 100 F/2 in ZE version will only be available in January.

Kind regards, Wim

I thought this was a thread about the ZE 50/2?

Yeah, wow. This one degenerated quickly. Four pages and not a lot of it informative about this lens. It would be nice to read some reviews from people who own the lens.

It's a brand new lens and as far as I can tell not many shoot 50mm macro compared to 100mm. Though I like having macro capability in a normal lens. I did some macro work with a 50L wide open that was interesting I can only imagine the results with this lens. I am tapped so I won't be picking up a copy in the near future.
