This is part of same test and again is the 14-24 mm lens at f11 but at 14mm very slight barrel distortion can be seen at left hand side but this is very easy to correct in Photoshop and is no problem. On a small pix as seen it is hard to see just how sharp these images are but trust me there is no problem when looking at full size image on good pro monitor.

Anyone want to play. JK wanted a comparison of S2 and 800E in the wild.

Handheld. Leica 120 mm macro versus Zeiss 100 f2 on the 800E

Interesting! On a tripod, the S2 wins hands down. But handheld, what do you think?

Top image for me! I'm guessing that's the D800 and you can pump the ISO up to get a sharp image handheld, the bottom one definitely has blur. I prefer the richer colors of the top image also, but I also prefer it's Bokeh, which is surprising if my guess is right?

Not giving an answer yet ... but don't forget the Zeiss 100 is probably the best lens in their line-up and has outstanding bokeh

Have to agree with Rich on this. I like everything about the top photo vs the second photo. :popcorn:

My vote is for the top photo. The sharpness is great.

Top picture I would say is better colour but the lower one seems sharper if you look at the hairs behind the head.
I would also say that the lower image is possibly more colour accurate (but only Ed can say that with an conviction).

Guessing I'd say top is D800 and bottom is S2 but I'm probably wrong!


Thanks for posting Ed.

Need to get back to Spain to test out my D800 with some high quality glass.
I had to come across light as I was picking up other equipment as well. Drobo and DroboShare units to replace my Buffalo Terastations.

Bottom one looks like there is motion blur in the tail to me, but I see what you saying about the hairs at the head.

I agree about end of tail sharpness on bottom one may just be movement or depth of field? My money on top pix for D800.

Look forward to hearing how JK gets on with his new D800 hope he will confirm my findings and be very happy with it.
