ZEISS Batis 135mm f/2.8 - Sony E Mount

The Zeiss Batis 135mm f/2.8 is a medium telephoto prime designed for full-frame Sony E-mount cameras. Featuring an Apo Sonnar optical design and built-in optical image stabilisation, it is optimised for portraiture and studio work. The lens is notable for its lightweight construction compared to other 135mm options and includes an integrated OLED display for focal distance and depth of field information. When purchasing used, inspect the OLED display to ensure it is clear and functioning correctly across its settings. The rubber focus ring is a tactile surface that can attract dust or show smoothing with heavy use. SDS checks the autofocus responsiveness and the effectiveness of the optical stabilisation system, as well as the cleanliness of the weather-sealed mounts.
