Zeiss 18mm f/3.5 Distagon T is a Long Term Investment Like all Zeiss lenses, their 18mm f/3.5 Distagon T lens is a long term investment. I like it a lot, especially as used on my BMPCC 6k body. Housed as a ZE, ZF, cp.2, cp.3 or in other guises, it's always a very useable lens — with "that" world-class look the Zeiss glass creates. The fact that it "only" opens up to f/3.5 has not been a problem for me. Most modern cameras have such great low light capability that shooting in low light is simply not as big a problem as in years past. Plus, being a wide angle lens, the bokeh that we covet in other lens, such as a 50mm f/1.4 wide open, is not usually the prime factor when reaching for an 18mm lens.
Lens in great condition Lens is really clean,nicely mainteined
Perfect. The lens that came in was better than expected. Immaculate.
