Just Announced: Zeiss Otus 85mm/1.4 Lens

Zeiss-Otus-85-1-4

Say hello to the ultimate portrait lens, the Zeiss Otus 85mm F/1.4!

Like it’s sibling, the Zeiss Otus 55mm F/1.4, this lens is designed to meet most rigorous demands of professional photographers featuring internal focusing and clearly recognizable yellow labeling familiar from professional cine lenses like ARRI/ZEISS Master Primes. The smooth manual focus operation with the large angle of rotation of 261 degrees combined with the easy-to-grip focus ring enables the finest variations in focusing. Both the extra-fine optics and the precision of the focusing mechanism can only be achieved with the metal design of the Zeiss Otus lenses. The robust all-metal barrel is also well equipped to deal with the rough daily work of a professional photographer, ensuring a long product life.

At this time, there is no plan to make a Sony A-mount version of this lens, but coupled with a lens adapter, this lens will be perfect for those A7 series camera owners who want to get the most out of their cameras!

Zeiss Otus 85mm f/1.4 Apo Planar T* is available from B&H Photo for $4,490 in ZE Canon EF Mount | ZF.2 Nikon F Mount
