Super wide angle for Nikon F

The Carl Zeiss Distagon T* 15mm f/2.8 ZF.2 lens covers a 110 degree angle of view on Nikon F mount SLR cameras. Its fast f/2.8 aperture supports dramatic perspectives in landscape and architectural photography. The CPU enables automatic exposure for shutter priority, aperture priority and program modes while transmitting EXIF data. Precise mechanics allow exact manual focusing for demanding photographers.

Sustained optical performance

Distortion is extremely well controlled across the frame, producing naturally proportioned photographs not typical of many super wide angle lenses. Two aspheric elements and special glass types maintain consistent sharpness from close focus at 0.25 m (10") to infinity. Flare and ghosting control remains outstanding even with extreme highlights in the image field. The large depth of field provides a wide range of sharpness for sustained shooting sessions.

Thermal and mechanical behaviour

The all-metal construction and precise focusing mechanism operate without electronic motors that generate heat during extended use. Manual focus operation eliminates power draw from the camera body for focusing functions. No cooling systems or moving electronic parts mean silent operation in quiet environments. The lens maintains consistent optical performance without thermal drift during prolonged architectural or landscape sessions.

Questions about this item

How much heat or noise does the Distagon T* 15mm f/2.8 generate during all-day shooting?

The lens is a passive optical device with no moving electronics, so it produces no heat and no noise regardless of how long it is used.

What camera body mount must I already own for this ZF.2 lens to work?

The lens requires a Nikon F-mount SLR body; the CPU contacts enable automatic exposure modes and EXIF data transfer on compatible cameras.

Will the 110-degree angle of view and 0.25 m close focus behave the same on an older manual-focus Nikon F camera?

On a non-AI body the CPU cannot communicate, so metering and EXIF are lost, but the optical 110-degree view and 0.25 m minimum focus distance remain unchanged.
