[QUOTE="Dave_W, post: 128663, member: 9521"] This is very interesting. It seems to be matching the pattern of newer G lenses outperforming the lenses designed 6 or so years ago. So far the 50mm and the 85mm f/1.8G all outperform the more expensive f/1.4 versions. Mansurov has also tested and shown this lens is stellar shows that it performs better than the f/2.8 on a variety of scales. What I am waiting for is the new version of the 70-200mm f/2.8 that utilizes this new design motif. I suspect that will be a legendary lens of epic proportions. You know, I wonder when Nikon will make a 14mm f/1.8G to undercut their expensive f/1.4 version? [/QUOTE]
