Questions & Answers

Shopper : Does it came with firmware version 2?ILLIAD C : YesDIENSON N : sorry, I don't have Touit for E mount, the one I have is for X mount, formware is V1.03JAMES K : It depends on the manufacture date, but probably not. You'll have to visit Sony's website update the firmware.
Shopper : Does this lens have a manual focus setting?MATTHEW D : Yes, but it has to be set in-camera, i.e. there is no physical AF/MF switch on the lens.NAPON H : You can use manual focus by setting it on the camera.SHERRY Y : Yes it does.MICHAEL W : The camera does, and when enabled this is an excellent lens for manual focus as the turn is incredibly smooth CLIFF M : Yes. This lens can be focussed manually. This is accomplished by using the appropriate setting on the camera (not a switch on the lens, itself).
harry l : How long is the warranty for this lens? where to repair? just in case...harry l : Thanks Andrew.BYRON C : Good question. I looked up the answer on the Zeiss web site. This is what they say: "From the purchase date you have a four-week window to register your ZEISS photographic product online. You will then receive the Carl Zeiss Extended Warranty which is valid for 3 years." I never bothered to register the lens. If you do buy the lens, their is repair and support info on the Zeiss lens web site.ANDREW R : Unfortunately the warranty period is not indicated in the product specs, however I believe that Zeiss normally offers a 3 year warranty (details are included with the product). I believe that all repairs would go through Zeiss or a Zeiss authorized service center.

Good Stuff - Good Results

Great glass. This goes nicely with the Fuji sensors and delivers great colors and skin tones. Very sharp, as expected. Decent construction without being too heavy. Recently walked around a friend's son's wedding doing documentary shots as a favor and the shots looked better than the pro stuff by the hired pro. They were using Canon FF gear @1000 but they lacked that edgy sharpness that I prefer. Focus is fast enough for the duty I put it to.

Great Prime!

A supreme lens, great color rendering, auto focus is nice. The build quality is very Zeiss, I love the rubber focus ring.

A very good 50mm equivalent lens.

If you prefer prime lenses, this is an excellent choice for Sony APSC e-mount cameras

Beautiful pictures ruined by defects

Bought this in June and I've been using it exclusively. The pictures are beautiful from 1.8 to 4.5. Recently the lens developed these black dots whenever i got above 4.5. So all my landscape pictures are ruined by 3 black dots that get visible as I increase the aperture. I guess I'm stuck using this lens from 1.8 to 4.5 only... I'm deeply disappointed with Zeiss because they make amazing lens but these aren't worth it at all. Don't buy at any cost!!!!

lemon?

I have 6 lenses for my Fuji XT-1 and this lens was my favorite one. However, I am quite disappointed that it quit 1 month after the warranty. The aperture ring got stuck. This is the second mechanical problem with this lens. When I bought this lens I could not attach it to the camera. It was too big. Incidentally, my friend purchased the same lens at the same time and we exchanged our lenses. To our surprise his lens worked on my camera and my lens worked on his camera. Something was not right with the tolerance of the lens, the tolerance of the camera or both. My lens is in service estimate now at a local camera store. Based on the repair estimate I will decide of a new replacement. I am not sure if I should by another Zeiss 32mm or the Fuji 35mm. The lens produces excellent pictures. It is surprising that a Zeiss lens would have mechanical problems. Picture quality 5 stars, mechanical quality 1 star.

Perfect standard lens

On my a6000 this a perfect normal lens. Fast and sharp, as you would expect. Comes in a beautiful foam lined box with a hood and both caps. Nice build quality feel.

Resolution You Only Dreamed about....

At the outset, let me say that Adorama gave me a deal on this purchase I did not expect. I've been a customer for over 25 years and accept it as a sort of reward for loyalty. I have a couple of Nex 6 cameras I use when traveling if I don't care to lug around an Olympus E-5 with SHG lenses. I have always believed that you build your system around the lenses and buy the best you can afford. Zuiko lenses for the four thirds mount still set the benchmark for all systems. Now I have to add this Zeiss 32MM Touit E mount to that league. It stands out for claity, color, and resolving power greater than the NEX sensor sensor needs. The only lens I can compare it to is the Zuiko 50mm f.2 macro. These two lenses are nearly perfect in all aspects. Zeiss has additional lenses with the Touit designation. Start with this one and build a lightweight system (Fuji/Sony for the moment) around the Zeiss lenses. Zeiss is past due for a firmware update for the Touit 32mm f.1.8 E mount to rid it of some irritating habits. We are assured they are working on the fixes. Outstanding optics.

Nice lens

I am pretty happy with this one. Fast and a 50mm eqiv. Good addition to the X-1 Pro lenses. Replaces a Leica 35mm f2 manual lens.

Expensive but sharp

I purchased this lens and love it. I use it for general use street photography. I have gotten some nice photos with it on my NEX 7. This lens is sharp but the down side is the autofocus. The autofocus motor is loud and slow. I heard Ziess is going to release a firmware update soon hope it remedies the slow focus. Overall this is a good lens with the firmware I hope it will make it a great lens.

Nice focal length E mount lens

I have always loved Zeiss lenses but this lens is a big disappointment. It has a very slow auto-focus and I sometimes don't get images as sharp as I expected. Otherwise it's an OK lens but certainly not my favorite lens to use on my NEX-5N.

Zeiss Touit 1.8/32 for Sony E
A compact standard lens with autofocus, especially designed and constructed for compact system cameras like the Sony NeX Series cameras. A lens that makes it so easy to spontaneously capture your special moments and preserve them in perfect pictures.

The best of two worlds. Just like a 50 mm lens in 35 mm photography, the Touit 1.8/32 offers the same angle of view as the human eye. However, Optimized for use with APS-C format sensors, it is simultaneously a lens that is so light and compact that it can be taken along simply anywhere and everywhere you go. Whether you are shooting portraits, landscapes or spontaneous snapshots, you will never cease to be amazed by what a Touit 1.8/32 can tease out of your camera. It is quite simply the ideal companion for capturing perspectives and colour- and lighting moods in perfect pictures.

Zeiss Touit 32mm f/1.8 Features

  • Innovative product design: The unmistakeable product design is based on an integrative concept and focuses on essential functional elements. Even the lens hood, typically an accessory, is seamlessly integrated into the overall design.
  • Full compatibility: The lenses are fully-compatible and support all camera functions, including autofocus.
  • Ideal aperture characteristics: he Touit lenses feature a nine-blade iris that closes to create an almost perfectly circular aperture. The effect of this is the creation of a particularly harmonious effect in the out of focus areas of the image ("Bokeh").
  • Smooth and reliable AF action: The focusing system of the Touit lenses is designed to guarantee robust and smooth autofocusing without any need for compromises or limitations in their optical design.
  • Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating: The optical elements of ZEISS lenses feature T* anti-reflective coating on all surfaces and an optical design that guarantees images of superior brilliance at all times, even in unfavourable lighting conditions.
