Rated 5 out of 5

Fantastic lens for the 5DSR

The edge to edge detail is incredible, and it does not have the flare that many lenses this short have. Be aware however that like any Zeiss lens I have ever owned, it's heavy. Well worth it though, the results are great.

If you're seeking to capture expansive landscapes, breathtaking scenery, or endless horizons with exceptional clarity and detail, the Milvus 21mm f/2.8 ZE Lens for Canon EF is your ideal choice. This high-quality, professional-grade lens, part of the renowned Zeiss Milvus line, is a master of wide-angle photography.

The lens boasts an innovative Distagon optical design, originally developed for SLR cameras but equally effective for mirrorless systems. This design ensures consistently good correction all the way to the image corners and very low field curvature, even with longer focal lengths.

The Milvus 21mm f/2.8 ZE Lens features a maximum aperture of f/2.8, enabling it to deliver reflection-free and practically distortion-free images. This makes it perfect for creating spectacular compositions filled with dramatic contrast, vibrant colors, and great diversity.

The lens is also equipped with a ZEISS T anti-reflective coating and a special pitch-black lacquer on all lens edges. These features, combined with light traps in mechanical components and specially designed surfaces, effectively reduce stray light and prevent reflections. This results in outstanding light reduction and excellent image quality, even in challenging light conditions.

Designed with the future in mind, this lens is optimized for high-resolution digital cameras, both current and future models. It minimizes coma, astigmatism, and spherical aberrations, ensuring consistently high resolution across the entire image field.

The Milvus 21mm f/2.8 ZE Lens also offers precise, manual focusing, allowing for creative control over image composition. Its large rotation angle and top-quality focusing mechanism support pinpoint focusing, while the silent, continuous aperture setting and long focusing range make it ideal for video photography.

Constructed with an all-metal housing, this durable lens offers an optimized ergonomic design for fatigue-free photography and reduced camera shake. It also features special seals for protection against dust and splashes, making it a versatile choice for use in various environmental conditions.

In conclusion, the Milvus 21mm f/2.8 ZE Lens for Canon EF is a high-performance, future-proof solution for photographers seeking to capture stunning wide-angle shots with exceptional detail and clarity.
