Carl Zeiss, Contax Distagon 2,8/25mm | Analogue camera

In Asta, a prestigious Carl Zeiss Distagon T 25mm F/2.8 wide-angle lens with Contax/Yashica (C/Y) mount. This lens is renowned for its unique perspective rendering, wider than the classic 28mm but with significantly less distortion compared to more extreme wide angles, making it ideal for landscapes, architecture, and reportage. The build quality is top-notch, typical of the Zeiss tradition 'made in West Germany,' with a solid all-metal barrel.

The anti-reflective treatment (t-star)* is the flagship feature of this optics: it guarantees exceptional contrast, saturated and vibrant colors, and a drastic reduction of parasitic reflections even in difficult lighting conditions or backlighting. The Distagon optical scheme ensures high sharpness from edge to edge, especially when stopping down the aperture.
