Rated 5 out of 5

Love it. Wouldn’t go back.

Overall, this is a fantastic lens. Special Zeiss character, compact, plenty sharp, and easy to focus. These easily outweigh any of the drawbacks. Plus, at 900ish bucks, it’s an excellent buy. If I could go back and make a different decision, I wouldn’t.

This was a brand new lens. I like it just fine. There's a picture and description of it on the website.

Let the 28mm f/2.8 Biogon T* ZM Lens for Leica M in Silver be your go-to lens for capturing breathtaking landscapes, cityscapes, and travel photography. This lens, a member of the esteemed Carl Zeiss family, offers the widest angle of view compatible with the camera's built-in viewfinder.

Constructed with eight optical elements, this lens is based on the symmetric Carl Zeiss Biogon design, a testament to its superior quality. It's a perfect complement to the 50mm Planar standard lens, offering high image quality devoid of color fringes, haze, or reflection.

One of the standout features of this lens is its impressive close range of 0.5m, making it a versatile choice for a variety of photography styles. The M-mount design, embraced by passionate 35mm photographers for over half a century, offers a unique advantage: more space. Without a moving reflex mirror and drive mechanism, the distance between the last lens element and the film is shortened, allowing for the design of superior lens types, including high-performing wide-angle lenses.

Our lens designers have taken full advantage of this, developing a range of T* ZM-mount lenses that represent the pinnacle of lens performance. These lenses offer advanced flare control for crisp, brilliant images and virtually zero geometric distortion, ensuring precise accuracy when reproducing shapes - a feature particularly useful for product and architectural photography.

The Carl Zeiss T* ZM-mount lenses are designed to minimize focus shift with aperture changes, improving the accuracy of the rangefinder-defined focus. The precise 10-blade aperture with 1/3 stop interval click stops ensures exact exposure. For reliable performance, these lenses feature a wear-resistant filter mount and an extremely accurate rangefinder coupling mechanism.

In summary, the 28mm f/2.8 Biogon T* ZM Lens for Leica M in Silver is a superior lens, offering high performance, reliability, and exceptional image quality. It's an ideal choice for photographers seeking to elevate their craft.
