Having been seriously in photography for 67 years I can safely generalize in this regard: ANY Zeiss lens , if you can afford it, will out-perform ANY other manufacturer's lens of equal focal length and aperture...except possibly a Leitz...which then demands you subject each to equally stringent testing before deciding on which to purchase. Oh...would that I could afford either!

The Leica (Leitz) and Zeiss lenses are the highest quality you can buy. I have been using Leica lenses for over 60 years. Poster size prints as sharp and as rich in color as you can imagine. All from Kodachrome slides.
