ZEISS Otus ZF.2 Bundle with 28mm, 55mm, and 85mm Lenses for Nikon F includes wide-angle, normal, and portrait-length primes, along with a dedicated hard protective transport case and three lens gears for use with follow focuses when recording video.
The widest lens in this bundle is the Otus 28mm f/1.4 ZF.2, which features a Distagon optical concept and apochromatic design to reduce distortion and produce clean, well-corrected imagery. Anomalous partial dispersion and aspherical elements are used to control aberrations and a T* anti-reflective coating suppresses flare and ghosting. Representing a slightly longer-than-normal focal length, the middle lens in the bundle is the Otus 55mm f/1.4 ZF.2, which also employs a Distagon optical design in order to produce well-corrected imagery. Anomalous partial dispersion glass is used again, to control aberrations, and a floating elements system maintains sharpness and resolution throughout the focusing range. Finally, this bundle also includes the Otus 85mm f/1.4 ZF.2, which is a bright portrait-length lens utilizing a Planar design. This apochromat also employs aspherical and anomalous partial dispersion glass, as well as a T* coating, for a high degree of sharpness and clarity. Each of these manual focus lenses are further characterized by robust metal housing and rubber focusing rings for enhanced control, as well as bright yellow-colored focusing scales for ease of use.
Included with the three lenses is a dedicated Otus Transport Case, which accommodates each of the lenses during storage or travel. Additionally, one medium and two large Lens Gears are also included for refined focusing control in conjunction with follow focuses during video recording.
Otus 28mm f/1.4 ZF.2 Lens for Nikon F
Bright-eyed and wide-angled, the Nikon F mount ZEISS Otus 28mm f/1.4 is an optically-refined prime poised to deliver a high degree of resolution and clarity in nearly any shooting condition. Featuring an apochromatic design, and utilizing the Distagon concept to reduce distortion, this lens uses a series of eight anomalous partial dispersion glass elements and two aspherical elements to virtually eliminate chromatic and spherical aberrations throughout the aperture range. A floating elements system is also used for consistent performance throughout the focusing range and a ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating suppresses lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color fidelity. Equaling the optical prowess of a Strigidae-inspired lens, the Otus 28mm f/1.4 is also characterized by a robust physical design for intuitive, exacting handling.
The wide-angle focal length pairs with the bright f/1.4 maximum aperture to suit working in broad variety of lighting conditions and is well-suited to a range of applications, including landscape, architecture, and interior photography. Accentuating the range of control, this manual focus lens is complemented by haptic design elements, including a 120° rotational focus throw, rubberized focus ring, and an all-metal lens barrel with high-visibility yellow scale markings.
