The Zeiss Milvus ZF.2 35mm f/2 Distagon is a high-quality manual-focus lens designed for Nikon DSLRs. It’s an update to the Zeiss ZF.2 35mm f/2. Key features include:
Great for landscape, street, and portrait photography
Advanced optics for high-quality images
Smooth, fully manual focusing with a 113° throw
Durable, weather-resistant build
Moderately Wide Angle. When used on a full-frame camera, the Zeiss Milvus ZF.2 35mm f/2 Distagon for Nikon provides a moderately wide focal length that’s great for landscape, street, and portrait photography. On APS-C sensor cameras, the Milvus 35mm will provide a 53mm-equivalent focal length.
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 Milvus ZF.2 35mm Distagon continues Zeiss’s pedigree of cutting-edge optics. It uses one anomalous partial-dispersion glass element within a floating-elements system to control 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 35mm Milvus ZF.2 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.
Click On, Click Off. The 35mm Milvus ZF.2 line offers an aperture ring that features 1/2-stop clicks throughout the f/2-22 range, as well as the ability to mechanically switch to clickless operation.
