| Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 3,5/18 Lens |
 Whether shooting the elegant lines of the Eiffel Tower or the vast
expanses of the Grand Canyon, both situations require a lens field wide
enough to reveal the unique and full dimensions of each image. With the
new Distagon T* 3,5/18 from Carl Zeiss,
EOS camera users now have an ultra-wide-angle lens at their disposal
while benefiting from all the other optical qualities that ZEISS lenses
are well-known for. The lens’s extremely wide 99°-angle view is
suitable especially for full-frame sensor cameras, delivering an array
of new creative possibilities. From landscape and architecture
photography to advertising images, cameras equipped with the new Carl
Zeiss wide-angle lens meticulously capture once-only moments and
spectacular perspectives.Despite its short focal length, the Distagon T* 3,5/18 ZE has an extremely compact design compared to other zoom lenses in its category. Internal focusing also helps to reduce its size while delivering extremely precise and smooth focus control. To prevent image aberrations during close-ups, internal lens groups are repositioned individually during focusing in what is called a floating elements design. This allows the Distagon T* 3,5/18 ZE to deliver exceptionally high quality—from extreme close-ups to infinity. Thanks to the ZEISS T*s anti-reflective coating and meticulously crafted lenses, the ZEISS T* is not affected by reflections or stray light. The result: razor-sharp images even under the toughest lighting conditions or with wide aperture settings. Following the Planar T* 1,4/50 ZE and 1,4/85 ZE, already long cherished by photographers around the world, the Distagon T* 3,5/18 ZE is the first wide-range lens with EF bayonet mount on the market. |
