The Zeiss 18mm f/3.5 for Canon is a manually focusing ultra-wide lens for Canon EF-mount cameras. Looking for a newer version of this lens? Check out the Zeiss Milvus ZE 18mm f/2.8. Key features include:

Advanced Optical Design. The Zeiss 18mm f/3.5’s floating-elements design ensure high-quality images over its entire range. Each element has Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflective coatings to help minimize reflections while yielding images with depth, brilliance, and high microcontrast, even in low light. The lens’s built-in color correction delivers high-contrast images without color fringing. Its 0.98-foot minimum focusing distance enables adventurous shooters to capture dramatic perspectives.

Fully Manual Focus. The 18mm focal length provides low distortion with that wonderful Zeiss contrast and sharpness. This is a fully manually focusing lens, but compatible cameras will automatically adjust exposure with the lens.
