<b>Pure. Immersive. Control.</b>Some photographers take pictures. Others craft them. We believe that true craftsmanship comes from focusing on your story - a deeper passion for what needs to be told - and completely immersing yourself, becoming one with what you observe, experience, and create. In short: realizing the story you have in your mind's eye. When this is then combined with excellent technology, where you truly have everything under control - and everything really is "in your hands" amazing things can happen that you didn't think were possible.With the Otus ML lenses stories can be told better, closer, and with even greater control, in the familiar ZEISS quality. Capture the moment exactly like you see it, like you feel it. Focus on your story.<b>Optical Excellence for Finest Details</b>The ZEISS Otus ML lenses represent unparalleled optical performance. Even at f/1.4, in challenging low-light conditions where your eyes might struggle, the lens reveals the finest details and textures with remarkable sharpness. The aspherical design reduces distortion and chromatic aberrations, which in turn contributes to better color fidelity and sharper, more accurate images. The legendary ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating minimizes reflections and lens flare, achieving excellent clarity and color accuracy.<b>The Distinctive ZEISS Look: Vivid and Nearly Three-Dimensional</b>Experience the unmistakable visual language of the ZEISS Otus ML lenses. Thanks to impressive true color rendition, outstanding sharpness, and incomparable micro contrast, a picture look is created that appears almost three-dimensional. Your subject stands out plastically and is clearly separated from the background-the perfect presentation through the characteristic ZEISS 3D Pop.The ZEISS Otus series is further distinguished by an extraordinary shallow depth of field that directs the viewer's gaze precisely to what matters. At the same time, the wonderfully soft bokeh - shaped by ten aperture blades- creates harmonious transitions, elegantly showcasing the stories' subjects.<b>Photography with Passion and Precision</b>Manual focusing is more than a method-it's an opportunity to connect deeply with your craft, giving you unparalleled control and creative freedom. It allows you to fine-tune your focus with precision, emphasizing the exact details that bring your story to life. With ZEISS Otus ML lenses, manual focusing becomes an empowering experience, offering millimeter-accurate adjustments to ensure every frame is captured just as you envision. Whether isolating a subject with razor-sharp clarity or achieving a perfectly smooth transition in depth, manual focus gives you the tools to compose each shot with intention and artistry, turning every image into a true reflection of your creative vision.Based on the legendary Otus family, known as best-in-class manual prime lenses, the new ZEISS Otus ML offer a uniquely precise mechanical design that gives photographers full control over their images. Focusing is controlled by a smooth, metal focus ring based on a helicoid mechanism. The aperture control with a de-click function allows for fine adjustments - ideal for photo and video productions.<b>Highest craftsmanship for an unparalleled feel</b>The full metal construction of the ZEISS Otus ML lenses combines first-class craftsmanship with exceptional quality. The precise and easily readable scales in yellow allow for quick and accurate adjustments to maintain full control.
