The only thing not to like about this lens is its high price, even though the added cost does bring genuinely improved performance. A mark has been deducted from the overall Performance figure for the trace of chromatic aberration at f/1.4 and for marginally less ‘bite' than was expected in real-world images, but this is an admittedly harsh judgement on so fine a lens.
