Zeiss Loxia 35mm f/2 Review

The Zeiss Loxia 35mm f/2 lens is a disappointment. It is overpriced and the image quality is mediocre, with softness and ghosting at wider apertures. The lens also struggles with vignetting, close-up image quality, and bright lights. The only redeeming quality is the sun stars it produces.

I feel sorry for anyone who's paid over a thousand dollars for this lens. Its optics are mediocre and I have no qualms in wholeheartedly not recommending it considering its overprice.

The lens is capable of producing impressive sun stars, but its overall image quality is disappointing, especially considering its high price tag.
