The 50mm f ZEISS Touit / 2.8M Lens is a moderate telephoto prime lens designed for use on cameras with APS-C format sensors and, as such, offers a 35mm equivalent focal length of 75mm. This lens is compatible with SONY E mirrorless cameras and supports all camera functions, including autofocus and exposure control. With a 1: 1 magnification ratio, it offers close macro capability and its minimum focusing distance is 6"A maximum f/2.8 aperture is effective in low light and provides shallow depth of field focus.
A complex floating lenssystem ensures uniform length when focusing and delivers consistently sharp performance. The optical design includes two aspherical elements and two partial anomalous dispersion elements that minimize lateral and longitudinal chromatic aberrations. Its nearly circular 9-blade diaphragm combined with depth of field control allows for images with a pleasingly soft, background, out-of-focus. It is an ideal lens for portraiture, still life, landscape and many other photography and video applications.
The physical construction of the lens features a sleek, all-black metal lens barrel with soft rubber control rings for precision when working with manual focus. A metal bayonet mount ensures precise alignment.
