i'm thinking of getting into nikon, these has been on my mind for a while now, probably a d300s. i started looking at what lenses i'll get when i go nikon, i got my eye on the 24mm f/1.4g, 50mm f/1.4g and the 85mm f/1.4g. according to the review here on photozone all these g lenses shifts focus stopped down, there's a chart on the review which shows this, would this be noticeable in real world shooting? is it that bad? i hear a lot of complaints from canon 50mm f/1.2L users regarding focus shift and how it ruins the entire photo.
anyone here experience focus shift with these nikons?
thank you

I'm not sure if all the samples of a lens do suffer from focus shift, not neccessarily... Therefore, I think the best thing you can do is to check the lens before you buy it.
@Markus & Klaus (concerning the LoCA / Bokeh Fringing tests shots): Can you please specify info regarding the focused spot, the distance from focused spot and increments of the ruler (cm. or inches)... I was always asking myself if these are essential or not, and I think this might be the right time to ask for an additional info for that part of the report.
