The ZEISS Batis 40mm f/2 CF is a highly versatile, short-normal focal length prime lens designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. Its advanced optical layout is based on the Distagon design and incorporates a combination of aspherical and anomalous partial dispersion elements to significantly reduce chromatic aberrations, distortion, and other optical flaws. This ensures sharp, high-resolution images with accurate colors and minimal optical imperfections. The floating elements system further enhances image quality, ensuring consistent performance at both near and far focus distances.

With a bright f/2 maximum aperture, this lens excels in low-light environments, enabling photographers to capture clear, sharp images in challenging lighting conditions. The wide aperture also offers greater control over depth of field, allowing for creative focus effects and selective focus work. The Batis 40mm f/2 CF also features close-focusing capabilitaies, with a minimum focusing distance of just 9.4 inches, a minimum working distance of 5.5 inches, and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:3.3, making it an excellent choice for close-up photography.

The lens is equipped with ZEISS’s T* anti-reflective coating, which reduces flare and ghosting to provide improved contrast and color fidelity, even in backlit or high-contrast scenes. The integrated OLED display on the lens barrel allows you to easily check the focus distance and depth of field, offering quick access to key parameters even in low-light conditions.

The lens features linear motors for fast, quiet, and smooth autofocus performance, making it suitable for both stills and video applications. Its dust- and moisture-sealed construction ensures reliable performance in various weather conditions, making it a durable choice for outdoor and challenging environments.
