Zeiss ZE 135mm f/2 APO Sonnar for Canon
Available Today
The Zeiss 135mm f/2 APO Sonnar is the newest lens from Zeiss’ long, reputable line of manual focus lenses for Canon cameras, and their longest offering in the ZE lineup yet. At 135mm and with a maximum aperture of f/2, many photographers’ wishes have been answered. Offering outstanding clarity of detail, high contrast, and high resolution at any aperture,the Zeiss 135mm f/2 APO Sonnar is a perfect choice for medium-range portraits, landscape, and reportage photography.
The Zeiss 135mm f/2 APO Sonnar can capture subjects up to a scale of 1:4 and has been built based on Carl Zeiss’s proven “floating elements” design. A special variable arrangement of the lens elements delivers excellent image quality over the entire focusing range, from as close as 0.8 meters, all the way to infinity. The compact telephoto lens features eleven elements in eight groups. Because this lens is an apochromat (APO), chromatic abberations (axial chromatic abberations) are corrected with elements of special glass materials with anomalous partial dispersion. The chromatic aberrations are therefore significantly below the defined limits. Bright-dark transitions in the image, and especially highlights, are reproduced almost completely free of color artifacts.As with all other SLR lenses in the ZE line-up, the Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating, as well as the sophisticated treatment of the elements’ edges with a deep-black special lacquer, make the Zeiss 135mm f/2 APO Sonnar resistant to reflections and stray light.
Zeiss Try and Buy: Rent any ZE lens for 4 days or more, and if you later purchase the same model from us (new-in-box), we will apply the 4-day rental fee toward the purchase price.
