ZEISS Otus 100mm f/1.4 ZE Lens for Canon EF

The ZEISS Otus 100mm f/1.4 ZE Lens for Canon EF, designed and engineered around the uncompromising standards of Zeiss, brings a beautifully sharp and contrasty image. Pairing the bright f/1.4 aputure with the 100mm portrait-length, allows for exceptional control over the depth of field. Especially, when paired with advanced slective focusing techniques.

The ZEISS Otus 100mm f/1.4 ZE Lens for Canon EF is manual focus, by design, and is built out of anodized metal. All of the focusing scales are engraved.

Its manual focus design is complemented by a rubberized focus ring for fine-tuned, precise control over your focus position. Additionally, Otus-series lenses also feature an equally aesthetic and durable anodized metal lens barrel surface along with engraved focusing scales and distinctive high-visibility yellow paint.

Short-telephoto prime lens is designed for full-frame Canon EF-mount cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 160mm equivalent focal length.

Impressively bright f/1.4 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and also provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.

Sonnar optical concept suits the combination of a large maximum aperture and long focal length, and also contributes to notable sharpness, well-controlled flare, and high contrast.

Apochromatic optical design utilizes nine anomalous partial dispersion elements to significantly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations for increased clarity and color fidelity.

One aspherical element controls distortion and spherical aberrations in order to produce greater sharpness and more accurate rendering.

ZEISS T* anti-reflective coating has been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections and provide greater contrast and color fidelity.

Floating elements system helps to maintain consistent image quality throughout the entire focusing range, from 3.3' to infinity.

Manual focus design is benefitted by focusing and depth of field scales, which are filled with a high-visibility yellow paint, along with hard stops at both infinity and minimum focusing positions.

All-metal lens barrel has a frosted, anodized surface along with a rubberized focusing ring for both durability and improved tactile control.
