Shootout: Zeiss Otus 55mm f/1.4 APO-Distagon vs Zeiss Milvus 50mm f/1.4: Lundy Painted Face Rock (Nikon D810)
See my Nikon wish list and get Nikon D850 at B&H Photo.
I’m sometimes asked “Otus or Milvus?” by readers who are not sure and would rather not spend the money.
This shootout answers the question unequivocally across the aperture range.
