Richard,

The first: better optics.

The second: better production control than Zeiss ZF, Nikon F, Canon EF, Sigma, etc...

The third: just because all of that is optically better between and at f/4 and f/5.6 that are the sweet spots of the lens optical quality.

The fourth: all that means that Leica's are sharper at corners, almost no any CA at sweet spots and also having more resolution.

The fifth: FF35 ready.

Aren't the Zeiss ZF lenses FF35 ready? Seems like they would be since they are DSLR/SLR FF lenses.

Not necessarily PL mount could potentialy change the nse coverage from the rear optic.

I wasn't talking about PL mount. I was referring to Nikon mount, aka ZF mount.

 

[Sanjin Jukic]

Carl Zeiss Nikon ZF mount still lenses are made by Cosina factory in Japan and are all FF35 ready just because they are designed for 35 mm (36x24 mm) film frame.

RED 18-50 only.... :umm:

I was saving up for the RED S35 Prime set. But now I've decided to skip it and get RED's Electronic FF35 format set to go along with my Epic FF35.

 

[Danny Robashkin]

does the cooke 18-100 cover FF35?

Of course not.
