Distagon T* 15mm f/2.8 ZF.2 for Nikon
Ultra-wide manual focus prime lens
The Zeiss Distagon T* 15mm f/2.8 ZF.2 Lens for Nikon F Mount is a manual focus ultra-wide lens to capture sweeping vistas, tight interiors, or exaggerate small objects in their environment. Optically, the Distagon T* 15mm f/2.8 features two aspheric elements, special partial dispersion optics, and a floating element, all of which combine to control chromatic aberrations and ensure beautiful images from close focus to infinity. A Carl Zeiss T* anti-reflection coating has also been applied to further enhance image contrast and clarity.
The new ZF.2 lenses are an enhanced version of ZF lenses. They feature an electronic interface (CPU) that enables support of all important camera operating modes such as shutter priority, aperture priority and programmed auto exposure or manual exposure settings. Photographers no longer have to set the parameters in the camera menu as the lens now transmits standard data such as focal length, speed and the aperture setting to the camera. This data can then be viewed in the EXIF data of each picture. The ZF.2 lenses also have a mechanical lock on the aperture ring to lock the aperture ring at the lowest setting and prevent unintentional adjustment while taking pictures.
