The above assumption (It wasn't Denton) is wrong, as per the
new Poop Photo tests of the Leitz APO-M 90/2 shows.
The testers concluded that the new version is the best 90 they've
tested. Yet, the 90/2.8 Zeiss is not very far behind, and in some ways,
superior. Add to that the $660 vs. $2200 price tag and the
6 to 17 oz weight disparity, and the Zeiss looks better than ever.
Both are superb lenses, IMO.
