I got a few free minutes yesterday and did quick comparision test of my 3 135mm lenses. Forgot to take my remote though and then the wind picked up so I'll try again later under better conditions. The lenses are the Pentax SMC 135/3.5, Leica R 135/2.8 and Contax 135/2.8.
3 shots at pretty much wide and 3 at f/8. The wide shots crops I'm showing the problem from the harsh lighting. The f/8 shots are center crops just to compare sharpness. These are RAW with no capture sharpening or noise reduction.
Contax f/4, was worse at f/2.8:
Leica f/3.5
Pentax f/3.5
Pentax f/8:
Leica f/8
Contax f/8
