Dotted Loosestrife Lysimachia punctata and Large-Leaved Lupine Lupinus polyphyllos make a nice yellow-blue colour patch on a nearby road verge. Both species are highly invasive and on the national 'black list' of species forbidden to sell through garden centres, however.

Yes, it is. And suits the Zf quite well, too, despite it  being heavy.

I often shoot with it at f/2 to make close-ups more dream-like. The depth of field is a thin slice, but details are incredible inside that section.

Should be a step-up from the Zf.
