ZEISS Batis 40mm f/2 CF - Sony E Mount

The Zeiss Batis 40mm f/2 CF is a wide-normal prime lens designed specifically for Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras. The 'Close Focus' (CF) designation allows for a minimum focusing distance of just 24cm, making it highly versatile for close-up details as well as daily street photography. It features fast autofocus, weather sealing, and a unique OLED display on the lens barrel that indicates focus distance and depth of field. Used Batis lenses should be checked for the condition of the OLED display to ensure it remains legible. The rubberised focus ring can attract dust or show signs of wear over time, so its physical condition should be noted. SDS tests the autofocus motor for silent operation and verifies that the optical elements are free from inclusions. Ensure the lens firmware is updated to prevent any aperture hunting issues common in early production units.
