High fidelity images and exceptional performance into the corners even at full aperture. The ZEISS Otus® 1.4\/55 makes absolutely no compromises and brings together over a century of ZEISS optical and technical excellence. This standard lens is the exception to the rule: perfect optical correction eliminates nearly all possible flaws, from color fringes and distortion to chromatic aberrations. With the highest contrast performance over the entire image field, even at an aperture of f\/1.4, this lens offers the spectacular medium format look when working with a modern SLR camera. Phenomenal detail and exceptional performance, regardless of whether it’s using available light or in the studio, the ZEISS Otus 1.4\/55 is the absolute best lens in the world today.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eIn contrast to its predecessors with similar focal lengths and speed, this is first time that the Distagon type has been selected for the optical construction of a standard lens. Only this optical design with its considerably longer construction makes it possible to already realise consistently excellent correction from corner to corner of the frame and extremely low image field curvature at a very large initial aperture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAberrations caused by extreme differences between shadows and highlights are particularly obvious in images captured at night. Thanks to the outstanding correction of lateral chromatic aberration, the floodlit facade is reproduced with absolute perfection.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eSources of light located in front of or behind the plane of focus present particular challenges to every lens. In the case of the ZEISS Otus, longitudinal chromatic aberration is so low that practically no colour fringing occurs.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eBecause this lens is an apochromat, chromatic aberrations (axial chromatic aberations) are corrected with elements of special glass with anomalous partial dispersion. The chromatic aberrations are therefore significantly below the defined limits. Bright-dark transitions in the image, and especially highlights, are reproduced almost completely free of color artifacts.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe aspherical lens design ensures consistent imaging performance throughout the entire focusing range as well as sharpness to the periphery of the image. The asphere's more complex surface profile can reduce or eliminate spherical aberration and also reduce other optical aberrations compared to a simple lens.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eSpecifications\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ctable class=\"data-table\"\u003e\u003ctbody\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocal length\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55 mm\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAperture range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ef\/1.4 – f\/16\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFocusing range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e0,5 m (19.68 ″) – ∞\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of elements\/groups\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e12\/10\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAngular field, diag.\/horiz.\/vert.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e43,7° \/ 36,7° \/ 24,9°\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCoverage at close range\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e246 x 163 mm (9.69 x 6.42″)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eFilter thread\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eM77 x 0.75\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions (with caps)\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZF.2: 141 mm (5.55 ″)\u003cbr\u003e ZE: 144 mm (5.66″)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDiameter of focusing ring\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZF.2: 83 mm (3.27″)\u003cbr\u003e ZE: 83 mm (3.27″)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eWeight\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eZF.2: 970 g (2.22 lbs)\u003cbr\u003e ZE: 1030 g (2.43 lbs)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd width=\"130\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eCamera mounts\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eF Mount (ZF.2)\u003cbr\u003e EF Mount (ZE)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/tbody\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Zeiss","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42720789332135,"sku":"GC40-2010055","price":5410.96,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0603\/4083\/0375\/products\/zeiss-otus-1.4-55-lens_1.jpg?v=1666614633","url":"https:\/\/www.georges.com.au\/products\/zeiss-55mm-f1-4-distagon-t-otus-zf-2-nikon","provider":"Georges Cameras","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
