Thanks for the post. Looks like the 16-80 performs admirably to me.
Certainly swaying me towards it. |

I have one question; did you had any problems with your 28-75D?
Performance at 28mm is quite surprising for me since i'm not used to get this softness stopped down to F4.5 based on these samples i would say that the new 16-80 lens certainly looks promising. |

No, I have many impressive shots taken with 28-75, but not often at full aperture.
Zeiss is very compact and well built. It's not as massive like 28-75, but turns very smoothly. Good construction. |

on first sight the CZ seems to be the sharpest one.

I agree with Kiklop; KM 28-75 at f4.5 usually performs much better (look at the left side of the image). - On the whole CZ 16-80 looks great, though.

It seems that my 28-75 isn't perfect. Maybe it can be fixed.

Thanks for the images.
I don't know about the two minolta lenses, but they are rather suprising....can the 24-105 be that soft?, leaving aside the 28-75 that is also too soft from what i pictured it to be, but sharpens up nicely at 50mm, the 24-105 is awful by comparison..., accros the board. I'd like to see this test with the kit lens, just for fun, maybe this would reset the boundaries for "lowness" |

Zeiss looks excellent, but I thought that at 50mm f4.5 the 28-75 was sharper on the left of the image. But the Zeiss is going to be easier to get hold of :-)

The Zeiss did look sharper, with a touch more contrast throughout the range. One thing I did notice, the KM has a more marked barrel distortion at the wide end - the CZ is non-existent.
