Thing is I am willing to pay more for a less if I can see a difference in quality. In which circumstances is the zeiss better and is it worth paying 4 times more for it.

@XSwishX Sorry, i'm not so expert. I made this video to let people see with their eyes!

[XSwishX]

you did use show the zeiss lens at 1.4. Would you recommend getting the canon?

[kiwimister]

@XSwishX I choose 1.8 because the canon lens can't have an f 1.4, and i want to compare the two lenses. The Canon is a good lens, also because is cheap, but the ZEISS one is another thing! It depends on different things: budget, for example.
