Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8 Lens for Sony E Mount

Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8 Lens for Sony E Mount

The Zeiss Loxia-series lenses are distinguished by their manual focus operation along with a manual aperture ring that can be de-clicked for silent operation; making them perfect candidates for filmmaking and video applications. Furthermore, the Zeiss Loxia lenses are also characterized by their compact form factor and all-metal lens barrel, which incorporates engraved focusing and depth of field scales, for fine-tuned control. Additionally, the lens body sports a dust- and moisture-sealed design to permit its use in trying environments. 

Bright f2.8 Aperture, Perfect for Video

This wide-angle prime is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 31.5mm equivalent focal length. Furthermore, this lens features a bright f/2.8 maximum aperture, which makes it easier to film video or take photographs in available-light conditions. 

Distagon optical concept affords high sharpness, well-corrected image quality from edge-to-edge, and very low field curvature. Four anomalous partial dispersion elements are used to significantly reduce colour fringing and chromatic aberrations for increased clarity and colour fidelity. 

Zeiss T* Anti-Reflective Coating

One aspherical element controls distortion and spherical aberrations in order to produce greater sharpness and more accurate rendering. Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating has been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections and provide greater contrast and colour fidelity.

Manual focus design is benefitted by focusing and depth of field scales along with a 90° focus ring rotational angle and hard stops at both infinity and minimum focusing positions.

Manual Focus with De-Clickable Aperture

Manual aperture ring has clicked indicators throughout aperture range. Using the included De-Click Tool, this ring can be mechanically 'de-clicked' for smooth, silent rotation throughout the aperture range; making it ideal for video applications. Weather-resistant construction includes internal seals to guard against dust and moisture as well as a blue sealing ring at the lens mount to protect the lens-camera interface.
