Opinion:It is the reinterpretation of the 15mm Classic, the look is updated and now it is decidedly more modern, the mc treatment of the front lens varies, the optical scheme remains exactly the same while tropicalization is introduced. And the Milvus are tropicalized for real, they are not limited to the rubber ring on the bayonet (as Nikon does ...) but have o-rings on all joints. Precisely these o-rings, however, have the consequence of making manual focusing less magical compared to the Classic series. Mind you, the maf is always excellent and beautifully multiplied, the tactile pleasure is safeguarded but .. with the Classics more! The optical yield is obviously identical to the previous model so splendid, sharpness from edge to edge and brilliance of the color table. The vignetting is also the same but this is a distinctive feature of the Zeiss wide angles, those who know the brand know it perfectly. The outlay necessary to take home such a gem is considerable but, in my opinion, the quality-price ratio is more than correct. All glass and metal, when you have a Zeiss in your hand there is nothing for anyone...
Pros:Global rendering, mechanics and refined design as mom zeiss got us used to it
Cons:Almost none
Opinion:Taken for a few months now but cause covid I still have to know it well, the lack of af does not make itself felt, focusing is a moment, stellar mechanics and very well balanced on d850. The only doubt that I still have to deepen is that it seems to resist the flares better but I think it is less sharp than its 15 mm classic predecessor and this would dry me a little since I bought it having tried the old and on the advice of many, web, forums etc who all said that it was identical to the old, same optical scheme but with a new and tropicalized dress. See.
Pros:Optical quality and stellar mechanics, extended to all size
Cons:Price, of course. Weight and footprint
Opinion:I use it on the Canon EOS 5Ds, and with that much demanding sensor from 50 mpxl the lens is flawless even in peripheral areas, very critical for a wide so pushed. I do not think that qualitatively you can want more. The holding in backlight outclasses that of my other superwide, the Canon 11-24/4 L, although excellent under the other points of view (and AF...) The rendering of the colors is typical Zeiss, more neutral than the Canon L.
Pros:Sharpness, chromatic rendering, micro and medium contrast management, possibility of mounting screw filters (95mm), removable lens hood
Cons:-
Opinion:The Zeiss Milvus 15mm is the heir of the Zeiss Classic 15mm. Having had the Classic, after that I unfortunately fell from the height of height (no action was possible) I decided to buy the Milvus. From an optic point of view Zeiss has not introduced any variation compared to the Classic project. They are the same identical lens and the yield is identical between the two. The quality is absolute, the spectacular yield. Images are rich in microcontrollers so that post-production work is always easy. The ability to have hard stop on infinity facilitates focusing in dark conditions (for example, in the preparatory steps of a session at dawn). The management of distortion and chromatic aberrations is striking. Aesthetically, Zeiss has confirmed its ability to appeal to its products, enhancing the Milvus barrel through the remarks of the Otus master series. Owning a wide-angle zoom like 16-35 is in my opinion an excellent complementFor a wide-angle kit, providing flexibility in the focal range. However, in the wide angle pushed, the Zeiss excels and turns out to be irreplaceable to me. Recommended Filters: Singh Ray (Combo Polarizer, 5 & 10 Stops)
Pros:Impeccably refined construction, overall rendering, sharpness, focus, high value keeping over time.
Cons:Weight, footprint, price (especially if Fowa).
Opinion:What about a diamond of the kind ??? rnSforna files exceptionally, especially if coupled with appropriate sensors (Nikon D810 or similar ...). The edge-to-edge sharpness is impressive, superlative color rendering, disarming focus due to fluid flow. Built without compromise, with high quality materials, tropicalized, and with a body coupling hooded by the masterpiece of precision mechanics. There is Nirvana of landscape painters (infinite focus and diaphragm 16) ... if you are not the worst of floor planes, but the 15 mm is not really the best lens for these refinements). It's heavy and bulky (As well as expensive) but I think it will accompany many professional and cameramen years in search of perfection. Last but not least, it keeps its rating far above the average used. RnA rare enjoyment, and an investment at the same time. RnDifficult to find better.
