Do you find the Zeiss has warm colours compared to Fuji lenses? I have some Contax g Zeiss lenses and they seem a bit warm and slightly magenta hue to the sky.

Greg.

I have never really thought about it but now that I think about it, yes, the color rendition is always really pleasing to me with this lens. Whether or not it produces a warmer cast to the color, I dunno. In situations in which I run the 21 mm and my Nikon kit, however, yes, I do feel the Nikon optics render color differently and maybe colder than the Zeiss. You're running your Gs on the X mount now? Which ones? Tell me but please don't tempt me.
