Zeiss Distagon T* 35mm f1.4 ZF.2 Nikon Mount Lens

Make every single detail count with the Zeiss Distagon T* 35mm f1.4 ZF.2 Nikon Mount Lens. Use depth of field to make details shine with its aperture range from f/1.4 - f/16. Attach accessories with its M 72 x 0.75 filter thread. It has a precise manual focus allowing you to fully control the details of the image you're capturing. The lens has 11 lens elements in 9 groups which creates a larger focal distance. It is made with an aspheric optical surface which reduces or eliminates spherical aberrations to produce brilliant images. Focus on a subject sharply even at a closer distance with its "Floating Elements" design. The lens is made with a special glass with anomalous dispersion so you won't have to compromise between quality, size and weight of your lens. Its high speed lens allows more light as possible giving you quality photos even in low light situations. The lens is compatible with F Mount (ZF.2) cameras. It is compatible with APS-C and Full Frame Sensor DSLR Cameras.

Product Features in Detail

Focus your creativity
Details matter. In fact, it is usually one decisive detail that generates a specific mood, emotion or expression in an image. As a photographer, you know how to draw focus to single elements and use depth of field to make details shine. And you know how to use them for maximum effect - with the Distagon T* 1,4/35.

Create enchanting images
The use of sharp contrast and soft focus guides our eyes to the areas that you want to highlight. With the Distagon T* 1,4/35, you can create enchanting images thanks to its unique combination of a wide angle of view with a shallow depth of field. It is a master of light and color at both ends of the spectrum. Precise when in focus, this lens also creates fascinating images as a result of its distinctive, harmonious bokeh in the out-of-focus areas. For creative, high quality images – even wide open.

Design
When wide angle views go to extremes and beg the control via an SLR viewfinder, which means that the back focal distance has to be much larger than the focal length, a retrofous design called Distagon is the right choice. It features Distagon with 11 lens elements in 9 groups, lens with aspheric optical surface, lens made of special glass with anomalous partial dispersion, and the "Floating Elements" design.

High-Speed Lens
Impressive photographs captured in low light always begin with a fast lens for a system or SLR camera. Because, a fast, high-performance lens captures as much light as possible. And a lens with a large maximum aperture leads to the best results when shooting in unfavourable light.

Ideal aperture with nine blades
Photographers want to guide the observer through the image. Minimal depth of focus is often used as a design element. This keeps the background intentionally blurred to keep the attention of the observer on the main subject. These different representations of the blurred areas, as well as the quality of the transition, are referred to as the Bokeh of a lens. The finely tuned features of the optical design on ZEISS SLR lenses ensure a particularly harmonious effect of the blurred areas of the image. The nine diaphragm blades and the resulting, virtually circular aperture on ZEISS SLR lenses are crucial to favorable rendition of highlights in the fore and background.

Aspherical design
The aspherical lens design ensures consistent imaging performance throughout the entire focusing range as well as sharpness to the periphery of the image. The asphere's more complex surface profile can reduce or eliminate spherical aberration and also reduce other optical aberrations compared to a simple lens.

Precise manual focus
Manually focusing a lens means controlling the image result from your fingertips. A good ergonomic design makes all the difference. ZEISS SLR lenses stand out with their large rotation angle which enables precise focusing. Changes are immediately visible in the viewfinder. The high-quality focusing mechanism moves smoothly without play, thus also supporting the intuitive interaction with the focal plane. The precise engraving in meter and feet, and the depth of focus scale provide additional support for manually focusing.

High-quality all metal mounts
Noticeable quality and high value stability qualify ZEISS lenses for decades of intense use. The high-quality craftsmanship of the all-metal mounts, the easy-to-grip metal focus and aperture ring and the robust front bayonet and filter threads ensure an amazing photographic experience.
