Is a 55 mm focal length always just a middle distance? One that lacks the allure of the particular? Not if this lens combines over 120 years of optical and mechanical excellence from ZEIss!

Experience the quality and look of a medium format system with the Otus® 1.4/55 from ZEIss. Whether you're shooting day or night, closer or further away, people, objects or landscapes, this lens offers high resolution and outstanding sharpness in every situation. In short, it is the best standard lens in the world.

Design

Unlike its predecessors with similar focal length and speed, this lens with a normal angle of view is the first lens with the optical design of the Distagon type. Only this optical concept with its significantly longer design allows even at very high initial aperture even

Highest image contrast

Aberrations are particularly noticeable in nighttime shots with large differences in brightness. Thanks to the excellently corrected transverse chromatic aberration, the luminous facade is reproduced absolutely perfectly.

No color fringes

Light sources that are in front or behind the focus distance are a particular challenge for any lens. With the ZEIss Otus, the colour longitudinal error is so small that practically no more colour fringes occur.

Medium format look

Thanks to its outstanding sharpness, the ZEIss Otus makes optimum use of modern high-resolution sensors and rewards you with an impressive resolution in your images. Down to the smallest detail.

Apochromat

As an apochromat, the chromatic aberrations (longitudinal chromatic aberration) are corrected by lenses made of special glass with anomalous partial dispersion. The color defects are therefore well below defined limits. Light-dark transitions in the image and especially highlights are reproduced largely free of colored artifacts.

Aspherical design

The aspherical lens design ensures consistent imaging performance over the entire focus range as well as sharpness at the image periphery. The more complex surface profile of the asphere can reduce or even prevent spherical aberration and reduce further optical aberrations compared to a simple lens.
