Product Overview

Zeiss Milvus 50mm F2 Makro-Planar is a manual-focus normal macro lens for Canon EF-mount and Nikon F-mount. It covers the image circle. Introduced by Zeiss in 2015, it has 8 elements in 6 groups.
Manual focus may be limiting to some, but purists will find it much more engaging. There are also fewer things to go wrong on the long run. For incremental weathers, Zeiss is kind enough to include weather sealing.
A normal prime lens, the Zeiss Milvus 50mm F2 Macro does not boast the brightest apertures, though it still may be worth a try for landscape and street photography.
