When you have seen the sharpness and color of what a Zeiss can offer in comparison to others, you'll understand.
I know because I've been in those shoes before.. I used to ask "What for spend so much on a CZ when other lenses will give you the same image?" I still held my believes through many TTs and outings with friends with CZ - as I believe it's the peer pressure which could be causing me like the lens.
It's not until I itchy butt walked into a Sony store in Times Square to just have a look around and once again, itchy butt asked the sales person to let me test a 24-70Z (perfect definition of SELF POISONING).. and bam! I felt it. I had with me my old Sigma 24-70. There's no coming close. Long story short, I have the 24-70Z now.

the main thing i consider is will the 35F18 come any closer to the 24F18Z...
24f18z = rm3500 (street price at least) = 35f18 + 1018f4 / Fuji X100 with balance rm500 / a obsolete Mac Mini + a obsolete New iPad
my pocket is tight, so many things come into my mind
