Sure the Zeiss is nice. If it is even sturdier than the Sigma, that is fine, but what is the point of added toughness (beyond a certain point) in a lens that is so expensive most people baby it, and will never, ever subject it to abuse? It isn't even weather sealed anyway.
I imagine that if most Otus owners got a cosmetic scratch on the barrel they would be sick to their stomachs even if the functionality was unimpaired due to the aforementioned toughness. If you could make a lens out of the same stuff Wolverine's claws are made, and charged $50,000 for it would one sell the Otus and pick one up because it is indestructible?
