I wanna hear your feedback!

All are extremely outdated, based on old technology, have limited hard designs, lack material availability and there's much better designs at a lower price available in today's market. Not to mention was acquired by Zeiss years ago most likely to avoid bankruptcy?

Well I answered in your other thread also, but the only of these lenses I use is the Instinctive, the freeform processed version (no POW compensation) as my budget lens, it is extremely well tolerated by all, sometimes I wonder why I even use more expensive designs lol.

As far as the compact ultra, I haven't used that since 2007 or 2008, so many other designs go to a 14 mm seg these days, and styles are bigger anyway.

Sola One, I have a few diehard lovers of this lens but I never did well with the design and haven't thought about it in a year or so.

Are you working for somewhere that surfaces their own lenses? I assume you are, Sola was a great company with some great designs, the Instinctive will stay with me until it is pried from my hands, but there are SO many other, better options available now.
