Description
The Zeiss Distagon T* 21mm f/2.8 ZE for Canon EF mount is a precision ultra-wide-angle prime lens that sets the standard in its focal length class. Designed for full-frame cameras, this lens features an intricate optical construction of 16 elements in 13 groups, allowing it to deliver corner-to-corner sharpness and effectively eliminate chromatic aberrations. Thanks to the proprietary Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating, it provides brilliant, high-contrast results and outstanding stray light attenuation, even under the most challenging lighting conditions.
While it is a manual focus lens, the ZE version features electronic contacts that allow for full integration with Canon EOS camera systems. This enables automatic aperture control directly from the camera body, full EXIF data recording, and focus confirmation in the viewfinder. Its robust, all-metal brass barrel and silky-smooth focus ring provide a tactile, premium shooting experience. A close focusing distance of just 0.22m (8.66″) makes it as versatile for dramatic close-up perspectives as it is for expansive landscape and architectural photography.
