Zeiss Super Speed Prime Lenses

Hi, super speed lenses are less sharp than regular Zeiss Primes ( T 2.1 ) I guess that even depend on series of the lens ( being newer or MK's 1 ) Im really a huge fan of Zeiss, if you want to give it a try, could go for Ultra Primes, they are very sharp and contrasty.

The question (and this conference area) dealt with 16mm format lenses, but the responses pertain to 35mm format optics.

 

There is no question: even the oldest generation of Zeiss SuperSpeeds outperform that old Zeiss 10-100 T3.3. They are sharper, have better contrast, far less chromatic abberation, do not suffer nearly as much from pincushioning, and do not breathe when pulling focus. There's a host of other differences, but I can't think of a single area where the primes do not outperform that old zoom.
