Loxia 2/35 overview
The Zeiss Loxia 2/35 is a 35mm f/2 prime for full-frame cameras on Sony E-mount, announced by Zeiss in September 2014. 39 cameras we track take it without an adapter. It is discontinued, so new stock may be limited.
No store we track in the United Kingdom has it new in stock today; used and refurbished copies start at £292.50.
Worth comparing it with the Sony Distagon T* FE 35mm F1.4 ZA, Sony Sonnar T* FE 35mm F2.8 ZA and Sigma 35mm F1.4 DG HSM | Art.
