Product Overview

For incremental weathers, Zeiss is kind enough to include weather sealing.
A telephoto prime lens, the Zeiss Batis 135mm F2.8 is well suited for portrait photography. Built-in image stabilization makes the lens easier to use handheld, and can be quite valuable for landscape works.

The Zeiss Batis 135mm is delivering an excellent sharpness at F2.8 that still increase a little bit at F4. It is a superb tool for portraiture, quite small compared to the 70-200 GM and much more lightweight. If like me, you love prime lens and you mainly do portraits, this is an ideal lens.
