I noticed that the quality is referenced and linked to Photodo.com. This site doesn't seem trustworthy. They rank Canon's 85L as one of the sharpest lenses in existence. This lens is known to be soft. In addition, they rank two lens with identical optical formulas as having different optical scores. The Canon 200/2.8L mk1 and mk2 have identical optics, but Canon changed the hood style. There is no reason they should have different rankings. Can anyone find MTF comparison data on another website? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 108.94.106.53 (talk) 09:35, 9 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

G2 Review

I'm leaving this here for now as a pointer to the review, since the Google Books digitization of Popular Photography skips 1997 and 1998, and I don't have physical access to a copy to glean information about the G2 that might be covered in this review.

"Test: Contax G2". Popular Photography. September 1997. p. 74.

Also:

The G1 test includes a review of the three launch lenses (Planar 2/45, Biogon 2.8/28, Sonnar 2.8/90) if a reference for lens quality is needed for that. Refer to "Test: Carl Zeiss T* Lenses". Popular Photography. April 1995. pp. 69, 170. Retrieved 15 November 2018.
I'm not sure when the Hologon 8/16 was tested, but a reference to that was made when Popular Photography tested the Voigtlander Super Wide-Heliar 4.5/15mm in October 1999: "Lens Tests: 15mm f/4.5 Voigtlander Super Wide-Heliar Aspherical". Popular Photography. October 1999. p. 101. Retrieved 17 November 2018.
Presumably the G2 test includes a review of the two lenses released with that camera (Planar 2/35, Biogon 2.8/21).
