p.1 #1 · p.1 #1 · Zeiss ZF.2 35mm f/2 lens on Canon


I just purchased a nice sample of this lens from a seller here on B&S (thanks Fred Gizzo -- AKS: keepsabeat), and am waiting for it to arrive in a couple days.

I started wondering about it for use on Canon mount. I'm already familiar with original fully manual ZF from a Zeiss 25/2.8 I have, and found it works great mounted to Canon, fully manual of course.

Looking for confirmation here: the ZF.2 models are mated to Nikon for auto aperture and exif compared to the naked ZF model when set to f/22 the aperture is set on the LCD like a regular auto lens. With mount to Canon, it reverts to a manually set diaphragm with no electronics (obviously) making it like mounting any Alt lens without native compatibility.

I had the ZE version and liked it, but preferred the new 35 IS for my use. This Nikon version could be a nice alternative for tripod mounted work -- I like having multi-platform lenses!

Anyone else used ZF.2 lenses on Canon?
