The Zeiss Otus 85mm f/1.4 is a superlative lens in every respect ? just like every other focal length in the unique Zeiss Otus family. A lens designed and constructed with the comprehensive expertise and vast experience of Zeiss.Features in portraits and finest details in textures are not the only things reproduced in perfect quality by the Otus 85mm f/1.4.

Take advantage of its high speed for available light photography, its moderate angle of view for landscapes or its close focusing distance for reproductions.The optical correction of the Otus 85mm f/1.4 completely eliminates almost all possible forms of aberration ? and makes every picture you take as exciting as the first, even after thousands of exposures.The famous symmetric lens design invented by Dr. Paul Rudolph at Zeiss in 1896. The Planar lens is the most successful camera lens design ? and, by the way, the most plagiarized ? ever created.

And its performance is very constant over a wide range of imaging ratios, enabling such a versatile lens variety as the Makro-Planar lens.ApochromatBecause 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.The Ultimate in Image ContrastAberrations 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
