The swiss website Artaphot.ch (yes it is in english) wrote a very good comparison between the new Zeiss 24mm lens, Zeiss 24-70mm, [shoplink 3034]Zeiss 16-35mm[/shoplink], Minolta 24mm and Miolta 17-35mm lens! The new 24mm Zeiss delivers very sharp images “more than 90% of the full frame are displayed with perfect resolution and nearly perfect contrast.” and “the image quality of the 2/24mm @ f2 is comparable to the image quality of the ZA 2.8/24-70mm @ f 11“. Thanks Artaphot for sharing us that very good review!

David Kilpatrick created a new Adobe Lens Profile for the [shoplink 2998]16mm f/2.8 NEX[/shoplink] lens! It automatically corrects CA (Chromatic Aberration), Vignetting and Distortion.

Kurtmunger tested the [shoplink 2996]18-55mm E-mount lens[/shoplink]: “The NEX e-mount 18-55mm makes a great lens to keep permanently on your NEX camera”

Alpha Numerique (google english translation) tested the Sony 135mm f/2.8 lens.

Serious Compacts tested the ISO performance of all current mirrorless cameras. The [shoplink 3003]NEX-5[/shoplink] prooved to have the best noise performance with 1 stop advantage over the rest of the world. Let’s hope Sony can do even better with the new Pellix cameras!

The very good lens review website Photozone tested the new [shoplink 3060]Sony 18-200mm lens[/shoplink].The results are very good for such a megazoom lens! The only “issue” that the lens is not very cheap.
