Interesting new Nikon-compatible lenses

[David Owen]

I've just been reading about the new Carl Zeiss 25mm/f2.8 Distagon ZF.2

It seems like an impressive update to a popular lens, thought at around $1,000, it's definitely not something I feel like I can just run out and buy. Does anyone have experience with this lens or its predecessor?

Does it seem like a good lens for architectural photography?

And more for portrait work, there's a Nikon f1.4(!!) 85mm AF-S short telephoto lens, as well as new 24-200mm, 28-300mm, and 55-300 zoom lenses. Definitely worth a look, if that's your thing!
