The editors liked

  • Solid
  • Stylish casing made of metal
  • Excellent image quality in the frame centre
  • Very good image quality on the edge of the APSC
  • Very good image quality on the edge of full frame
  • Low longitudinal chromatic aberration
  • Slight lateral chromatic aberratio
  • Excellent build quality
  • Lovely handling
  • Super-sharp
  • Beautiful bokeh

The editors didn't like

  • Huge vignetting on full frame
  • Coma in the corners of full frame could have been less distinct
  • I suppose after our test it is pretty clear what the target groups of the Otus and the Milvus devices are. The Otus is a demonstration of the power of the Zeis
  • No autofocus
  • Very expensive
  • Awkward click/de-click switch

  • Excellent build quality,Lovely handling,Super-sharp,Beautiful bokeh
  • No autofocus,Very expensive,Awkward click/de-click switch
  • The Zeiss Otus ML 50mm f/1.4 looks, feels and performs like an utterly uncompromising lens. It's designed and built for optical excellence, pure and simple, with no modern fads like autofocus or image stabilization, or even camera-driven aperture control...

  • Everything would be fine if there was no Sigma. Their A 50 mm f/1.4 DG HSM model proves that you can construct a lens as efficient as the Milvus for half its price; a lens which optically is almost as good and in some categories fares even better.Fortunat...

  • Definitude: "definiteness; exactitude; precision." [Dictionary.com] Sounds like a fitting word for use with the Zeiss Milvus lens line (and it is a fun word to say). There are good reasons why people love Zeiss lenses so much, especially the unbeatable bu...

  • Abstract:  Some years ago Zeiss licensed Kyrocera of Japan to use the name Zeiss on some lenses made for the Contax brand of cameras. Life was good. Contax went out of business in 2005, ending the need for these lenses. As soon as the agreement expired in 2006, ...

  • Abstract:  Testets enda objektiv som saknar autofokus. Den manuella fokuseringen för tankarna tillbaka till tiden före autofokus och känslan och precisionen i fokuseringen är exakt. Byggkvaliteten är extremt hög – metallkonstruktion rakt igenom..

  • solidna, gustowna i metalowa obudowa, świetna jakość obrazu w centrum kadru, bardzo dobra jakość obrazu na brzegu matrycy APSC, bardzo dobra jakość obrazu na brzegu pełnej klatki, mała podłużna aberracja chromatyczna, niewielka poprzeczna aberracja chroma
  • ogromne winietowanie na pełnej klatce, koma w rogach pełnej klatki mogłaby być mniejsza.
