Related Questions and Answers
Q: 1. How does the Milvus version of this 21mm lens compare to the older Distagon version?
A: The Milvus 2.8/21 shares the same optical design as the 'Classic' Distagon T* 2.8/21 ZF.2, but is superior in a number of other ways. The anti-reflective coating is improved, which provides better control of flare and subsequently improves contrast and color saturation. The barrel is now weather sealed against moisture and dust, while the aperture on the ZF.2 series can be de-clicked for continuous control of the aperture.
Q: 2. I see aperture ring and numbers in the product image. If this was used on D7200, does the camera recognize the aperture selected on the ring? And how do the 1/3 aperture stops work?
A: The aperture selection on the ZEISS Milvus ZF.2 lenses can be done using the ring on the lens barrel, or via the sub-command dial on the camera. This choice needs to be made in the set-up menu on the camera (refer to the D7200 user manual for more information). When the aperture ring on the lens is chosen, the aperture is changed in 1/2 stop increments. When the aperture is controlled via the camera using the sub-command dial, then the aperture can be controlled in 1/3 stop increments. When using this method, the aperture on the lens should be set to the lowest level until it clicks into place. Otherwise you will see EE readings in the camera menu.
Q: 3. What is the effective focal length of this lens on an APS--C camera?
A: The equivalent length would be close to 31mm.
Q: 4. will this work on an older f series camera like an f3?
A: Yes this lens can work on a Nikon SLR body like an F3.
Q: 5. Can this lens be used on a Nikon Z7 with the Techart adapter?
A: While it could work being completely manually controlled there are probably better options available to you.
Q: 6. Can this lens be used on a Nikon Z7II with the FTZ Adapter?
A: The ZEISS Milvus 21mm f/2.8 ZF.2 Lens for Nikon F is compatible with the Z7 II when used with the FTZ adapter.
Q: 7. Does this lens have focus breathing?
A: Yes, definitely noticeable in my copy when comparing closest focus to infinity. No doubt there are scenarios where this phenomenon matters but as an amateur enthusiast Ive never encountered any problems because of it. Definitely a fabulous lens.
Q: 8. Is this lens made in Germany? Or Japan?
A: The following lens is made in japan.
Q: 9. How many blades does the diaphram have? Are they rounded?
A: The lens has 9-blade circular aperture.
Q: 10. Can anyone recommend a well-fitting lens case or cover?
A: I'm using a smal neoprene micro lens pouch bought on Amazon. It's brown, made of neoprene with a drawstring to close it and thus nicely protects the lens. Comes in three sizes, the smallest one (tight) and the medium (with extra room) work well for the Loxia 21. Unfortunately, but understandably I cannot paste the link here...p
