I'm looking to get a fast 50mm lens for my M8.2 and would like input from those who have experience in these lenses:
- Zeiss 50mm f/1.5 Sonnar (I realized this lens can be optimized at different apertures..)
- Leica 50mm f/1.4 E43
- Leica 50mm f/1.4 E46
For the price difference, I think I like the 50 lux E43 over the Zeiss Sonnar (I like the signature from pre-asph lenses), but I'm having some second thoughts about 50 lux E43 vs. E46. Does the improvement in MFD (Is this the only improvement?) warrant the more significant increase in price? Since I'm using M8.2, would that make 0.7m MFD more/less critical?
Thanks in advance.
