>>4127965>The mere fact that a zoom lens is able to reach near 80 lpmm, only a bit lower than official resolution records set by the best fixed-focal lenses, speaks volumes about the quality of this instrument.>the 70 mm fares a bit weaker. Does this fact give you any reasons to complain? Not at all. Many primes wouldn't be ashamed of resolution results which exceed 60 lpmm at the shortest focal length up from the maximum relative aperture.>In this case the 135 mm focal length sticks out in a positive way because it fares sensationally well. Even though the Sony 70-200 mm is a zoom lens, it is able to defeat with ease many primes we've recently tested.>To sum up we don't hesitate to say that, when it comes to resolution, the new Sony FE 70-200 mm f/2.8 GM OSS II is an outstanding lens, providing you a sensational image quality at every focal length and across the frameDid you mean to post an article endlessly praising it and pointing out how it beats primes?
Wide open at it's weakest, 70mm focal length it's still hitting 50lpmm at mtf50, that's pixel perfect edge to edge mtf50 at 2400x3600 on full frame. Significantly better than any crop lens, ever made.
Pic related is the Zeiss Otus 85mm, a £3500 manual focus prime, even in the centre at it's best aperture, it doesn't even come close to what the Sony can manage at the edge, at it's weakest focal length wide open.
You've been absolutely cooked lad, time to go to bed.
