Zeiss Touit 50mm f/2.8M Lens for Sony E-Mount

The Zeiss Touit 50mm f/2.8M Macro Lens is the perfect choice for capturing those extreme close-ups such as the delicate structure of a petal, the tiny hairs on a cat’s fur, or the seductive lines at the corner of the eyes. So, whenever the shot is all about the minute details, this Zeiss Touit lens will delight and inspire. In addition to the exceptional image performance up to a scale of 1:1, this lens allows you to portray objects in their original size and also provides a beautiful contrast between the pin-sharp focus of the image and the softly sketched background. All moving parts of this Zeiss Touit lens are conceived specifically for APS-C cameras and support all camera functions. The strong and rigid metal bayonet mount makes it an absolutely dependable companion for years.

1:1 Macro Capability

Capture the smallest things and the tiniest details at their actual size using its impressive maximum reproduction ratio of 1:1. At its closest focusing distance, this macro lens allows the subjects sized 15x23mm fill the frame. Delivering exceptional imaging performance at short as well as medium and long distances, this Zeiss Touit lens offers minimum distortion, outstanding correction of chromatic aberrations, minimal image field curvature and excellent correction of coma and astigmatism allowing true-to-life reproduction of any subject, particularly in combination with the high resolving power of modern sensors.

Zeiss T* Anti-Reflective Coating

The Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating featured on all surfaces in combination of an optical design guarantees images of superior brilliance at all times, even in unfavorable lighting conditions. This coating is applied to the lens surface by the vapor deposition of extremely thin, transparent layers on the glass. This process is completed by vaporizing special substances with extremely high energy in a high-vacuum environment and subsequently depositing on the glass surfaces, one after another, as layers with precisely controlled thicknesses to achieve the desired reduction of reflective properties.

Floating Elements Design

The Zeiss Touit Lens uses the latest floating element design principles for keeping up with the demands of today’s camera technologies and high-resolution sensors. This design reduces optical aberration effects to a minimum throughout their entire focusing range. This can be achieved by variation of the axial distance between individual lens elements or groups. This adjustment of the lens-to-lens distance is coupled to the distance setting to ensure correct compensation at all times.

Smooth and Reliable Autofocus

Thanks to the extremely precise movement of certain lens elements, the autofocus system of this Touit lens is smooth and completely reliable. Various motor types are installed for the mass of the elements or groups to be moved within the optical system. The focusing system guarantees robust and smooth autofocusing without any need for compromises or limitations.

Virtually Distortion-Free Optics

This lens opens up new composition possibilities using dramatic perspectives and a view from extraordinary image angles. Due to distortion, the straight lines, whose image does not go through the image center, would be reproduced with a curved shape disrupting the whole composition. Thanks to the elaborated optical designs of this Zeiss lens, this annoying distortion effect is accordingly and largely compensated.
