I think rumored Fuji 33 F1 will be superior lens in overall image quality, just because Fuji has more power to design and make excellent lens.
I'd strongly recommend to buy this ZSM 35mm 0.95 II lens ONLY from the place where you can easily make a return. Just in case : )
I purchased my ZSM sample from one of eBay Hong Kong seller, just because his -9% special, and nice return policy.
When I communicated my concerns, seller replied fast and checked other samples for me, and offered replacement or return.
But finally I realized that everything is fine with my sample, and I very like how it performs.
Slightly asymmetric look of closed aperture blades, it's observed on many samples:
Anyway, you may have different experience, or just don't like how the lens work for you. This lens is relatively expensive for manual focus type, so will be hard to re-sell.
Once I've purchased used SLR Magic 50mm 0.95 for about $950, and sold it in about year, just because it's too specific lens with very low interest to it on the market.
This ZSM is more interesting, it's smaller, lighter, much easier to use. It's sharp in the center, even wide open.
But this lens is not as perfect in corners like its equivalent 'Nikkor 50mm 1.4 on FF sensor'.
Many of you have Fuji XF 18-55mm lens.
It's just slightly bigger than ZSM 35mm (Fuji: 65 x 70mm vs ZSM: 63 x 60mm), and about 150 g. lighter (Fuji: 310 g. vs ZSM: 460 g.)
