I do have both and will get some time to compare them this coming week (hopefully). I'm curious too.Mike:
If you have both the 10 and 12 currently I'd love to hear your comparison of them (especially corner sharpness).
Definitely. I'll see if I can do it later today.Mike: could you post a side by side of the same scene (such as your work shop) so we can get a feel for coverage 10mm vs 12mm?
I would like to know, too, since I have your m-mount 12mm and wonder what I will gain by upgrading.Hey Mike:
That should be fun to test. I'd love to know how it compares to the previous Voigtlander 12mm. Please post your thoughts (and photos!).
For me, the main advantages are the native mount (with electronics) so you get EXIF lens data and automatic selection of the focal length for IBIS. You also get focus magnification, but that's not particularly helpful with such a wide lens (it always looks in focus, more or less).I would like to know, too, since I have your m-mount 12mm and wonder what I will gain by upgrading.
Looking pretty good to me. Here's a quick test, handheld, showing center, edges and corners. All at ƒ8.Interested on how the corners are looking.
