Mittig überzeugt das 1200 Euro teure Ultra-Weitwinkel ohne AF schon offen, abgeblendet legt es etwas zu. Der Randabfall ist offen besonders beim Kontrast kräftig. Dazu kommt eine Vignettierung von 2,5 Blenden. Abblenden verbessert beides signifikant. Ist also die Offenblende nur in der Mitte gut nutzbar, passt abgeblendet das ganze Bildfeld.
