I'm looking for reviews on Zeiss lenses, their new coatings in particular:
I met with a Zeiss rep yesterday and was impressed, I think I'm going to give their PALs and digital SV another shot. Probably will be using the Boston lab, they were giving me very competitive prices on high end lens designs.
I had a bad experience with a certain local Zeiss lab 3 years ago and soured me on them.
I have no concerns with the quality of their PALs and compensations (anyone who had the Meister Man working for them is okay in my book).
The things I don't like are:
1: That stupid Zeiss man cut out at Walmart optical, I hate that.
2: Their AR coatings, are the new ones better? Purecoat was gorgeous but not as durable or easy to clean after 6 months as I would want.
I'm excited to try their lab for a number of reasons, I'm also hesitant in switching from my indy lab - though I feel Zeiss could be a powerful partner for the medical side of the business.
