The Zeiss Milvus ZE 35mm f/2 Distagon is a high-quality manual-focus lens designed for Canon DSLRs. It’s an update to the Zeiss ZE 35mm f/2. Key features include:
Great for landscape, street, and portrait photography
Advanced optics for high-quality images
Smooth, fully manual focusing with 113° throw
Durable, weather-resistant build
Moderately Wide Angle. When used on a full-frame camera, the Milvus 35mm f/2 provides a moderately wide focal length that’s great for landscape, street, and portrait photography. With an APS-C sensor camera, you’ll have a normal range focal length of about 56mm.
Fast Aperture. The f/2 aperture enables decent speed for low-light shooting and great background blur for controlling depth of field.
Advanced Optics. The Zeiss Milvus ZE 35mm f/2 Distagon for Canon continues Zeiss’s pedigree for cutting-edge optics. It features one anomalous partial-dispersion glass element within a floating-elements system to combat distortions and aberrations while retaining sharpness and clarity at any focus distance. The enhanced T* anti-reflective coating controls ghosting and flare for a color-neutral image that still flaunts that famous high micro-contrast “Zeiss look.”
High-Quality Build. The ZE 35mm Milvus features a weather-resistant construction with internal seals to guard against dust and moisture, while a blue sealing ring at the lens mount protects the lens-camera interface. The all-metal lens barrel has a frosted, anodized surface for increased durability.
Modern Manual Focus. This fully manual-focus lens features a 113° focus throw and rubberized focus ring for improved tactile control, while still providing electrical communication with the camera to control aperture and communicate EXIF data.
