High-quality manual focus standard prime lens for Nikon F mount.
The Carl Zeiss Milvus 50mm f/1.4 ZF.2 is the definitive standard prime in the Zeiss Milvus series, featuring all-weather construction, a smooth manual focus mechanism with variable damping, and the ZF.2 electronic Nikon F mount CPU for aperture coupling and EXIF data. The Milvus series represents an evolution of the Zeiss Classic ZF.2 lenses with improved mechanics.
50mm focal length, f/1.4 maximum aperture, Carl Zeiss T* multi-coating, Milvus series all-weather sealing, Nikon F mount with CPU contacts (ZF.2), manual focus with variable damping, 77mm filter thread.
The Milvus 50mm f/1.4 ZF.2 delivers reference-class optical quality for standard perspective photography. The variable damping mechanism allows adjustment of focus ring resistance to personal preference. Weather sealing makes it practical for outdoor photography. Competes with the Zeiss Otus 55mm f/1.4 at lower cost and smaller size.
Test CPU contact communication via Nikon body metering. Inspect all elements for fungus, haze, and T* coating condition. Check weather seals for any damage. Test the variable damping mechanism. Confirm Nikon F mount engagement.
