Based on images posted in the forum, the Zies is non-existent. I've seen many execllent 77 images, and not one Zies image that I can think of. If it's so great , why hasn't it caught my eye, like even once? I've seen so many times somoen buys some lens and declares it the greatest thing since sized great, lens purchasers are anything but impartial in their evaluations. But I am open minded about these things. Start posting some images and I'll give it a look.
Or to put it anther way, many have posted such things in the past and ended up looking like fools.
When it comes to claiming a lens is better than the 77 (or 31) talk is cheap.

I've only had my K-1 for a few weeks. For my little birds at the feeder, well, it's quite possible it will never go out there again. It wastes my time. For land scape, I love the extra wide FoV perspective and dynamic range. Tess took an image for me today and looked at it and said, "you'r just a silhouette", with a bit of dodging contrasting and saturation I'm as good as could be asked for, just incredible dynamic range. Also the color seems really rich to me. I've quickly gotten used to putting the camera into high contrast situations, and low light situations.
The K-1 instantly became the lens in my hands, but until there's a reasonably priced Sigma 8-16 replacement, it won't be my automatic landscape lens, but it's pretty close.
