This is the ultimate lens. No imperfections everything I take is either out of focus or pure gold. I actually hate deleting photos because even those are good. Its either great or nothing. I will now buy a 28mm Otus. This lens made me into a Zeiss believer.

Can not say enough about the color rendition of this lense absolutely fabulous. It does take a creative hand to work with the manual focus . But what a precision instrument, a real pleasure to work with.

ZEISS Otus 1.4/85 The best short tele lens in the world
The Otus 1.4/85 is a superlative lens in every respect - just like every other focal length in the unique ZEISS Otus family. A lens designed and constructed with the comprehensive expertise and vast experience of ZEISS.
Features in portraits and finest details in textures are not the only things reproduced in perfect quality by the Otus 1.4/85. Its extremely large initial aperture is simply ideal for isolating subjects from their backgrounds. At the same time, the Otus 1.4/85 is far more than a portrait lens. Take advantage of its high speed for available light photography, its moderate angle of view for landscapes or its close focusing distance for reproductions.
The optical correction of the Otus 1.4/85 completely eliminates almost all possible forms of aberration - and makes every picture you take as exciting as the first, even after thousands of exposures.
