ZEISS Otus 55mm f1.4 Nikon

Is a 55mm focal length really always just a middle ground? One that lacks the appeal of something special? Not when this lens combines over 120 years of optical and mechanical excellence from ZEISS! Experience the quality and look of a medium format system with the Otus 1.4/55 from ZEISS. Because whether you're shooting day or night, closer or a little further away, photographing people, objects or landscapes - this lens impresses with high resolution and outstanding sharpness in every shooting situation.

It is, in short, the best standard lens in the world. Unlike its predecessors with similar focal length and speed, this lens with a normal angle of view is the first to use the Distagon type optical construction. Only this optical concept, with its significantly longer construction, makes it possible to achieve uniformly good correction right into the corners of the image and very low image field curvature even at very high initial apertures. The aspherical lens design ensures consistent imaging performance over the entire focus range as well as image sharpness at the image periphery. The more complex surface profile of the aspheric can reduce or even prevent spherical aberration and reduce other optical aberrations, compared to a simple lens.
