Lens Description: The black 35mm f/1.4 Distagon T* ZM Lens from Zeiss is a manual focus, wide angle focal length lens that is compatible with Zeiss Ikon, Leica M, or Voigtlander M-mount rangefinder cameras. Featuring a maximum aperture of f/1.4 and optics treated with Zeiss T* anti-reflective coatings, both color and detail can be accurately rendered, even under low light. The wide aperture also provides the ability to blur backgrounds and isolate subjects beyond what is possible with lenses that have narrower maximum apertures. Additionally, the 35mm focal length has the added benefit of subjecting the frame to minimal distortion or compression, so that proportions and elements within the image are more accurately depicted.
