You would think so, but my Zeiss' are off limits and will never be sold. They are my guilty pleasures and are even kept in a separate hard case. When I use them, I use
only them and only when shooting strictly for pleasure when I can really take my time and enjoy myself. They are, in short, my photography therapy.
I will admit, though, that when I got the 28/2, I did think that it might preclude me from ever needing a 31. Didn't turn out that way. First, I still need an AF prime in that FL as I just can't MF the 28 fast enough for all situations. The other 2 maybe, but not the 28. Second, and I don't intend this as a knock against the lens, but it does exhibit some field curvature in the near-field. It's actually kinda cool sometimes, but not all the time. So there's that.
