Zeiss Loxia 50mm f/2 Planar: Understory Aspen (Sony A7R)
This scene provides terrific insight into the bokeh characteristics of the Loxia 50mm f/2 Planar. The large crops from f/2 - f/11 show the progression and style across the range. Zeiss implies pleasing bokeh with the Loxia lenses:
Almost circular aperture with 9 blades, for especially harmonious rendition of highlights outside of the focal plane.
Indeed, it is a primary reason to consider the Planar: lenses each draw differently, and a particular drawing style may be well suited to some purposes more than others. The Planar is a classic and much-imitated design for its even-tempered behavior.
