Yes, I swear the 50/2 is really too high in contrast and too sharp, so
it can't be a general purpose lens which sometimes serve for family
portrait, don't tell me I'm wrong and need to give it a try again (I
have sold it long ago). I'm buying back the 28/2 again after I have
sold it two times :-( Lacking a large aperture 28mm really seems
missed a lot!
