  • As a huge fan of the Contax Zeiss series, I’ve always been intrigued by the legendary reputation of the Contax Zeiss 28mm F2, also known as the “Hollywood” lens. This lens is renowned for its stunning image quality and unique character, but it comes with a hefty price tag.
    I have the Zeiss 28mm F2 ZF lens, which I’ve read online has only minor differences compared to the Hollywood version, at least the optical design is not that different (I could be wrong). Given the significant price difference, I’ve always wondered if it’s worth selling my ZF lens and paying extra for the Hollywood lens.
    Recently, a generous friend of mine lent me his prized Hollywood lens for a while, giving me the perfect opportunity to compare the two. In this video, I conduct a CASUAL, SHAKY HAND HELD, NON-SCIENTIFIC comparison to see if these lenses are really that different.
    Lens A is the ZF and lens B is the CY. I couldn't tell the lenses have a significant differece. The CY version has a slight separation in the internal element which could explain the slight softness in 2x crop, this is hard to tell and sample variation means a lot. But it does feel more dreamy! In this end, I guess it's about personal preference.
