which zm lens to try?

[guoshuo]

they are all around here,people love trying new gears and sell after a while, especially after the mirrorless camera are sold well, zm lenses can be easily found second hand with a reasonable price.

I own the planar, next lens will be the 35/2 biogon.

My reasoning is this: the 35/2 biogon gives you an emergency f2 and at least from MTFs seems to really excel at stopped down performance. For how I use lenses, this is the best design choice for me.

so between the 50/2 and 35/2.8, I chose the 50/2.

+1 the biogon's "emergency" f2 for me is appreciated for portraits of older women in particular due to wide open softening. Typical stopped-down zeiss microcontrast and resolving power in the zm planar and biogon lenses are not flattering to a lot of folks' skin who've seen a few years.
