This year, instead of making videos about the sharpest lens I’ve ever tested, I’m going to break them down into categories – I thought that might be more interesting :-) so the most popular focal length goes first: 50mm.

Two notable lenses are (potentially) missing from this list: the Nikon Z 50mm f/0.95, and the very new Nikon Z 50mm f/1.2, neither of which I've been able to get hold of to test. I don't know what I'm more excited about, by the way: how many fanboys of various camera systems get infuriated by this video, or how many people try to convince me that this video is rubbish because such-and-such a lens has 'Better Microcontrast and 3D-Pop' etc, hehe.
