You know, it's possible that I was thinking of the 75/1.4 Summilux. Massive internal vignetting, hot edge rear defocus.I'm delighted to contradict you: :salute:

Why do you say that? Any personal experience or you are just trying to sound cute?It's simply a failed lens design.
Lovely, samples, Charlie!My shorter SLR nikkors have nasty bokeh.
Who doesn't want to sound cute? Seriously though - the level of internal vignetting creates a very far from uniform background defocus. Especially when focused very close the background defocus gets quite disturbing - I know, this is partly subjective. There was a thread here some years ago but most images posted in old threads seem to have disappeared.Why do you say that? Any personal experience or you are just trying to sound cute?
Oh yes, 75 Lux and Cron. Two of the worst lenses ever. :chug:You know, it's possible that I was thinking of the 75/1.4 Summilux. Massive internal vignetting, hot edge rear defocus.
I gotta disagree, the Olympus OM Zuiko 250mm f2 and 350mm f2.8 win my vote.No Leica lens on earth has better bokeh than the nikkor 300/2.8 EDIF (yes I got a nice 75 Lux). It's legendary for this reason among several. :grin:
