Yesterday I took the Panchro out, it reminded me how I like its glow and rendering, when I bought the Elcan, I thought it would be kind of the same but now it clearly shows that those two lenses are two different beasts.
The Elcan might just be the superior lens but the Panchro, man, it got something I like.
LLL Speed Panchro II 50mm f2 & Nikon Zf
Only the first one is in focus and barely so. I'm confused because your Elcan shots are focused, but your SPII shots rarely are. I don't know how you don't go cross-eyed reviewing these photos without a point of focus somewhere!
I'm on the same page with you on this, but did not want to offend the photographer.
I had this SPII lens and I know how difficult it was to focus (at f/2) on my A7c due to it be very "glowy" at f/2 and the poor EVF of the A7c. But the Zf is supposed to have focus confirmation, as I've heard, and probably its EVF is much better.
