What are the two kinds of Zeiss 50 1.4?

First of all, your question seems to be wrong. Zeiss 50mm f 1.4 ZF2 offer 5800(ZOL offer) Zeiss 50 mm f1.4 zf2 offer 3980 (cat. com)。

One is ZF2 and the other is ZF, which is actually the difference between the old model and the new model. The new ZF2 can set an aperture through the fuselage, or it can be automatically exposed on the fuselage without an aperture coupling mechanism, while the old ZF2 can't. The new ZF2 should be installed on Nikon Canon, which can measure light directly and automatically. Old ZF will have to estimate exposure value by itself, or with the help of an exposure meter.

The price difference between the two is that the expensive (new ZF2) can automatically measure light, while the cheap (old ZF) can't. The imaging gap between the two is that the old model has restored Zeiss's housekeeping skills left by lack of workmanship and electronic components: that unique color is amazing and invincible in some color performances. Due to the increase of electronic components and the reform of lens, Zeiss' unique feeling may be compromised.

Of the 19 top 135 shots rated by Hasselblad Lab, Zeiss 50 1.4 (I don't know whether it is new or old), but none of Nikon's heads were selected, so needless to say! However, Nikon has two advantages over Zeiss. 1. The price of Nikon 50 1.4 is around 3,000 yuan. Second, Nikon 50 1.4 can achieve autofocus on all Nikon digital computers, while Zeiss can only do it manually. Please choose your own advantages and disadvantages.
