One of my favorite reviews sites just tested the new Laowa 105mm f/2.0 STF lens (. And behold guys…this seems to really be a an exciting performer! Photozone tested the Canon version, but the lens comes for A-mount and E-mount too. And they write:

The technical quality of the Laowa lens is truly impressive even when ignoring the STF feature. It is extremely sharp in and near the image center and the borders are also very good.
The most significant value proposition is, of course, the rendition of the bokeh and the lens truly shines here (mostly at f/2). The highlight discs and (background-)focus transitions are indeed very silky. Thus while the focal length and speed alone may not be a reason to get excited, the STF feature is! The amount of bokeh fringing is, again, typical for a lens in this class.

Sounds good!
