30-80mm Alura vs 30-80mm Opimo DP

[Carlos F. Rossini]

Hi to all,

 

I have managed a Forum search and haven't found this question answered.

 

I'm about to buy a zoom lens in the 30-80mm focal range, weight and size aware. I will use them mainly with our F3 and match it with a CP.2 set that I already have. I have successfully "matched" the Optimo in a feature length doc that we are just about to premiere. But I have no experience with the Alura. My main concern is the IQ of the glass and be prepared for the moment that I need to buy a new camera/sensor. Any one have had the opportunity to test/use both ? and have some info that could be useful in my decision? I will love a 18-80mm focal range, but the weight in the kind of films I shoot is a deal breaker.

 

Thanks in advance for your advice!

 

C.
