Awesome, but i bet you $5 its soft as hell...a lens like this is not likely going to be that great optically..the 200/2 is a FAR better lens

Ye of Little Faith Kenji!... Its a Zeiss, its fawking beautiful!

I admit im assuming, but lenses of such extreme capability are generally NOT that great optically...

I can agree with you but I would also imagine it wasn't designed for perfect spot on top notch optical sharpness. I would say doing a 1.3 at 200mm they were going for something very much different but doesn't mean that it can't be sharp still though :p

Well on that Hassy the field of view has got to be closer to a 135mm on full frame, isn't that a common head and shoulders portrait focal length?

Yes, its probubly more like a 135mm f/0.95 in terms of 35mm

Holy ****, chuck a 2x TC on that and you've got a 500mm f/2.8, and a short one at that. I wish I were a millionaire.

You can already get that from Sigma for a mere 28,000. The only upside to the other is that it would take less space in your Gulfstream V.
