Have not been able to shot any landscape yet, but plan to do it in next batch.
I have to memorize the settings for each photos and try to keep it simple:
First round wide open, second round close focus, and so on.
So far this lens really impresses me. I have seveval 28/2, but I would like to calm down a bit before I say something about the comparison. |

Carsten and Ian,
Thanks for your comments. I think this forum has increased prices of many lenses to a higher level 
Many sellers in eby also have unrealistic prices. And because of these sellers, I also had difficulties in local negotiation in some cases, often ended no sale. |

28 1,8 probably more sharp with better contrast, I did try both, difference if any is little. UC lenses better coating than others.
