Another Example of Detail with the Zeiss Otus 55mm Lens

(1/2) > >>

Michael Erlewine:
Here is the Zeiss Otus 55mm f/1.4 APO lens on the Nikon D810 at ISO 64, showing a grape leaf, and then a 100% crop of the edge of the leaf so that we can see the detail.

Amazing detail.  Seems like what we used to consider medium-format territory.

Michael Erlewine:
I agree, something like that. I sold my medium-format camera some time ago and almost all of the eleven very-heavy lenses I had. I don't regret it. My guess is that another bump in megapixels (like 54 mpx) will lock it in. What we are experiencing in cameras is what happened in jazz music. It was called Fusion.

Andreis:
Was that leaf about the size of a hand? Were you at minimum focus? Wonderful detail.

Airy:
... and the background is nice too.
