Rated 5 out of 5

Zeiss has exceeded all of my expectations!

This lens has the ability to produce incredibly sharp images with great clarity. It captures extremely accurate color in the scene pretty much eliminating the need for color correction in the digital dark room.

Long time investment

Very sharp + nice micro contrast = lot of details. The IQ is consistently very high on the entire picture. Since the lens is very well built, it is a long time investment. I immediately replaced the front lens cap for a Tamron, which holds itself much stronger.

Amazing lens

Shooting landscapes is wonderful with this lens. Everything is sharp to the pixel level (with Pentax K20D body), and the colors are amazingly bright. Even the widest aperture can be used with excellent results. The lens delivers unbelievable performance.

WORTH THE MONEY

By Tricky N.

Very sharp lens and contrasts that are not attainable through zoom lenses.

The ZEISS ZF.2 with F bayonet for digital SLRs. Thanks to its electronic interface (CPU), these new ZEISS lenses support all-important operations such as the automatic exposure for shutter priority, aperture priority and program modes. The CPU also supports manual exposure settings, including those for camera casings that are not AI-compatible. Since the lens now transmits the EXIF data such as manufacturer, date, metering system and exposure settings, photographers no longer need to set the parameters manually. These quicker and faster handling capabilities of the ZF.2 lenses are especially useful under hectic shooting conditions.

ZEISS lenses truly come into their own in situations that demand extreme photographic creativity and maximum image quality. Carl Zeiss' fixed focal length lenses are known for their high light sensitivity and precise manual handling, leaving the photographer in full control. The new ZF.2 series will be especially interesting for photo enthusiasts who value creative, high-quality images combined with the comfort of automatic settings.
