Pros:Constructive quality, solidity, sharpness of the image, general yield, flare resistance, distortion and aberration.
Cons:Nothing
Opinion:I have owned this stratospheric Milvus that allows unthinkable results with "pro" optics. Here the planet is no longer Earth but we are minimal on Mars. I do not give a reckless eulogy, on the contrary, I hold myself well from doing so, having tried a myriad of optics and bodies. But this Milvus... This Zeiss will allow you to shoot in every condition at the top! The colors it produces are vivid and pleasant, very well saturated. You will surely have a nice surprise opening at maximum resolution on your monitor the images produced by this monster. You read that right. The lens itself is well done, well built, with all the Zeiss tricks. The house is historically at the highest level in the industry. You can therefore delight with this lens for the fidelity of the images, the almost total absence of any aberration or distortion. The flare? He doesn't even know what it is. On my D700 I was incredulous zooming in on the screen the images produced. Imabarazzante. If I can recommend, don't sell the optics once you've purchased it. Regret.
Pros:Optics kill monkeys, put it in the kit and do not think about anything else....
Cons:Both front and rear caps are indecent
Opinion:I recently sold the Distejon 21 Classic ZF. 2 to move to Milvus. The characteristics are similar (even if the Milvus seems to me even more insensitive to flare, perhaps the most modern treatment), so I carry what already written for the old model "what else to add to everything written by other owners? I have recently converted all the Nikon kit to switch to Cosina-Zeiss and I am delighted. Specifically regarding the wide I had the 14-24 and the 24 mm 1.4, both outclassed from this optical masterpiece. The design is old, indeed ancient, but the results are before the eyes of all: three-dimensionality on everything and then a lot of sharpness, openness of the shadows, bokeh and much more, to end with the immense satisfaction that you feel using this masterpiece of Mechanical and Optical Engineering! A must in absolute, I'm sorry only to have lost years with the plastics.... "
Pros:General optical yield, microcontracting and colors. High sharpness in the center already from TA, good on the whole frame from f5.6. Top construction.
Cons:SCANDALOSO front cap, TA vignette, high weight and price, does NOT have the infinity perfectly in focus at the end of the ride
Opinion:I took this beautiful lens very soon, after being pleasantly impressed by the surrender of the little brother, the Milvus 2/35. The performance is in line with the Distagon series (it does not change the optical design) but I preferred the Milvus for the tropicalization and the more modern design. Manual focus is not a problem for this focal point. On the other hand, it is not made for action photos. I use it for landscapes and thought shots on tripod. For the rest I have the Nikon 20mm 1.8g, which is autofocus and has a similar yield... except for the microcontract. Like my other Milvus (and as written in the House instruction manual) it does NOT have the infinity perfectly in focus at the end of the race... but with wide anglers you almost always work in hyperfocal.
Opinion:The only "defect" is the front cap which has a tightened hook and sometimes releases, this being said the optic borders on perfection. if you are landscape designers it is the best that you can buy together with the 15mm because resolution, shades, shadows, lights and contrast is the best ever, worth every single euro of over 1600 that are used to buy it new. built to last a lifetime, has the fluidissima and surgical ring. moreover, it is not a small thing, it has an EXACTLY infinity limit so to make a landscape just go to the end and you have the focus exactly where it needs to be, and it remains there.rnin post production you set only the white balance and the picture control on landscape and the photo is already recommended by cartolinarnultra
Pros:Construction, aesthetics, perceived quality, color rendering and sharpness embarrassing.
Cons:not having
Opinion:Rated 10 across the board, a masterpiece in sharpness and color rendering, chromatic aberrations zero, zero distortion, resists the backlight in a neo eccellente.rnL'unico is a slight vignetting to my taste even hurt that much, that is optical every penny and in my opinion the best wide angle that can smooth and precise comprare.rnGhiere, becomes a drug to use them!
