I'll be focusing mainly on how it compares to the M9 and how the Zeiss/Sony 35mm compares to the Zeiss 2.8 35mm Biogon that is my favorite lens for the M9. Being a B&W guy, the color with wide angles is not a serious issue, but some say there is also smearing at the corners. We'll see. I'll let you know.
