FEATURED REVIEWS
Versatile lens...
This is a great lens with several different faces. On the A900 it is a superlative wide angle with very little distortion, extremely sharp and rich Zeiss colors. on the A700 this is a super walk-around 36mm equivalent. I sometime find myself wanting the extra reach I have on the Zeiss 24-70. And, I sometimes feel like making this lens something that it is not. During times such as these, I just switch lenses to something more appropriate.
Outstanding Lens
Works great on my SLT-a65. Excellent imaging including close-ups. Have not had any trouble with focusing.
Legendary Distagon wide-angle quality
This first-rate 24mm prime lens is an outstanding choice for landscapes, snapshots, and more. It takes outstanding ZEISS Distagon quality to a new level with precision aspherical and ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements, and the large F2.0 maximum aperture and a circular aperture cooperate to deliver gorgeous bokeh effects.
• ZEISS F2.0 wide angle prime
• ZEISS T* coating reduces flare and ghosting
• 9-blade circular aperture for smooth bokeh
• SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) for fast, quiet autofocus
• Focus hold button
The SAL-24F20Z zoom lens offers superior zooming performance and boasts a compact, lightweight design. The fast and silent auto focus, minimal spherical distortion and color aberration and Carl Zeiss T* coated optics make this one a great choice for beautiful close-ups.
Extraordinary wide-angle rendering - The ZEISS Distagon lens design is valued for its outstanding reproduction of deep contrast as well as delicate gradations, with corner-to-corner sharpness.
Sharp, high-contrast imagery - Two aspherical elements and two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements minimize aberration for superior image quality throughout the image, while the ZEISS T* coating cuts flare and ghosting.
Get close for small subjects and details - This lens can focus as close as 7.48 in to capture small subjects and details with excellent quality, set off against beautiful background bokeh if desired.
Smooth, consistent focusing and control - Handling is enhanced by a focus hold and focus mode buttons right on the lens barrel, and a smooth, responsive SSM (Super Sonic wave Motor) focus drive system.
Lens Configuration
