New Zeiss Loxia is here. Third in the line (just like in fairy tail, the third son is usually the winner :-)), but first to introduce new, original design. Loxia 21/2.8 is based on the Distagon construction and doesn't follow Zeiss ZM line like it was the case with Loxia 35/2 (Biogon) and 50/2 (Planar).…
On 10th of September, in the group headquarter in Oberkochen, around 40 journalists mainly from Europe, have been introduced to the new Zeiss lens line called Milvus. Milvus Milvus is a Latin name for the Red Kite, medium-sized bird of prey, with largest population in... Germany (around 12000 pairs) While few of my friends photographers,…
I had opportunity to briefly play with new full frame lenses for Sony E mount cameras - Zeiss Batis 25mm f/2 and Zeiss Batis 85mm f/1.8. On a local Zeiss promotion here in Prague, both lenses were available for photographers and journalists, but we were informed that they are still prototypes, not final production versions,…

I promised to add some RAW files taken with Sony FE 16-35mm f/4 ZA OSS Vario-Tessar T* and A7r for download. Please note, that the conditions were more than difficult, low lighting, lot of people around, no good target, possible miss focusing (I used manual focus on Sony sign in the middle of the frame)…
Zeiss stand on Photokina is... different. There is a large oval with various cameras which are hard but flexi wired to the desk, each with different Zeiss lens. All around, there are always 3-4 photographers waiting to put their fingers on those optical gems. Unlike many other producers, Zeiss let you put card in camera…
Just a brief report from Sony stand. It's huge. There are many stands on which you can hold and try most of the novelties, and some very expensive video cameras and many different tools and toys. http://youtu.be/9LCVq4azyzQ?list=UUrgZ0xuwSLetdhvrLQqa7BA When I approached closest stand, my hands felt instantly on the long-expected Sony 16-35/4 OSS and I asked…
