picturesque Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 <p>I am sure Marc Williams himself will chime in, but in the mean time, you can read the following excellent article.</p> <p><a href="http://www.photo.net/wedding-photography-forum/00V98v">http://www.photo.net/wedding-photography-forum/00V98v</a></p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ilkka_nissila Posted April 16, 2010 Share Posted April 16, 2010 <p>It's quite slow to focus; if you're really confident in manual focusing, sure, it's a fantastic lens optically. But it would be virtually impossible to apply for a moving subject in practice. For portraits, why not. For close-ups it's amazing. The images have a lot of pop and detail.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chris_seldon_lady Posted April 22, 2010 Share Posted April 22, 2010 <p>Stan, I often use a similar lens, my Voigtlaender Apo-Lanthar 125/2.5, with good results both for wedding photography and for other events. IMO, you need a focusing screen optimised for manual focusing in order to reach consistent results. I use my Apo-Lanthar with 5D mark II with Eg-s focusing screen and the results are outstanding, with more than 95% of pictures in focus and unrivalled bokeh.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stan43 Posted April 27, 2010 Author Share Posted April 27, 2010 <p>Thanks for all the comments. I plan to try the Zeiss on some pre-ceremony bridals. I'll be shooting with the 24-70L,35L and 95L from then on.I'm anxious to try the new Lens.</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
