The Zeiss 15mm is my personal favorite lens that I have ever used for astrophotography.

But I also only ever tried 3. I used a Canon 24mm f/1.4 II for a few years, than a Canon 16-35mm f/2.8 III

I just the love the manual focus on the Zeiss 15mm, it has a hard stop at infinity, so you turn it as far to the right as it goes, and boom the stars are in focus. With the Canon lenses, I was always playing around trying to get the stars in focus.


Did you have the fixed hood removed, thats my only grip with the Ze15, cant use filters, but great for astro, and normal shooting.

How did the 16-35mm f/2.8 III perform, and on the upside its friendly for filters ?
