Experience the fusion of historical charm and state-of-the-art technology with the Trioplan 35mm f/2.8 II Lens for Sony E. This lens, a reimagined classic from the Meyer Optik Gorlitz family, boasts optimized mechanics, an enhanced optical design, and a newly designed lens coating, all of which contribute to the creation of the most stunning Trioplan images ever.
The Trioplan 35mm f/2.8 II is globally recognized for its distinctive soap bubble bokeh effect, a feature that allows photographers to infuse their work with an artistic soul in an era dominated by point-and-shoot photography, Instagram snapshots, and pixel wars. This lens empowers you to create unique images that truly set you apart from the crowd.
Built on the classic Triplet design and featuring an aperture composed of 15 steel blades, the Trioplan 35 f/2.8 II produces the famous soap bubble bokeh and a unique sharpness curve that transitions smoothly from the focused area to the background. The lens's construction has been optimized to offer improved haptics, particularly in relation to the aperture setting, as well as superior contrast and sharpness characteristics.
The Trioplan 35mm f/2.8 II lens is manufactured for the most common mounts of modern cameras, including a wide range of Sony E-mount cameras. This lens is particularly popular among videographers, thanks to its noiseless focusing, a result of the company's in-house glass lens production and the production of high-precision mechanical components through German partner companies.
The Trioplan 35mm f/2.8 II lens is a tool that allows you to infuse your images with a unique charm and recognition value. It excels in nature and portrait photography, offering balanced sharpness and a particularly attractive bokeh. The famous "soap bubble bokeh" effect is especially pronounced at f/2.8 in backlighting situations, while smaller f-numbers yield impressively painted blur areas. With the use of macro rings, the Trioplan can achieve an image scale of up to 2:1, making it an excellent choice for artistic macro shots.
Whether you're capturing portraits or exploring nature photography, the Trioplan 35mm f/2.8 II lens, designed for full format, is a favorite among photographers. Its sharp-edged soap bubble bokeh effect is most pronounced in situations with open aperture (f/2.8) and back light. Beyond that, this lens creates picturesque gradients in the background, adding a unique touch to your photographs. It is also ideally suited for the use of an extension ring, which increases the soap bubbles in the background and achieves an extremely high and fine resolution in the close-up range.
