Re: Pre-order: Zeiss Batis 135mm f/2.8 APO ($1,999)
So a couple hours ago I was cycling to my local dealer to pick up the Batis 135 I had ordered. About half way there, I hear a pop and immediately start hearing real bicycle tire start to deflate. Universe telling me to turn back home and forget the Batis? Maybe. I still went to get it though
Home now for a quick lunch and then heading out to give it a spin. Got it on the kitchen scale really quickly and was pleasantly surprised by the weight.
Batis 135 weights in at 616g while the 90G Macro goes for 605g. Both with no caps or hoods, just the naked lens.
I have to say I'm not thrilled with the hood. I rarely use them though and hopefully won't need it with the Batis. Today will be a good test on that, since it's actually an incredibly sunny day in Stockholm (might have just jinxed that now though).
I'll share some side be side photos later of the lenses and samples from the A7RII.
