The 35mm f2. Sel55f18z is in the same league as the zeiss otus 55 f/1.

This is a must have lens in your grouping of choices. No regrets at all. Ultimately, any lens has it's pluses and minuses so it's just a matter of personal preference and applicable use.

Performance of this lens surpasses its cost


The price is a bit steep for a 35mm f2

Shipping


Just wish it was faster but its a great lens


I find that the auto focus is fast and accurate

Packaging/appearance


During the trip the contax and the 2870 mm stayed pretty much in the bag while the little 35mm was glued to the a7rii

Competitiveness


On a ff a7rii sony i have i can say it is the ideal focal length for complete walk around use


I got mine from a local bestbuy since i need it asap


I just upgraded from a6000 to a7rii


I have the sony a7ii emount camera with full frame sensor and the sonnar® t fe 55 mm f1
