Zeiss 135mm T2.1 Standard Speed

Zeiss 135mm Standard Speed:

The Zeiss Standard Speeds have been long-standing industry workhorse favorites that have consistently delivered exceptional performance on top-tier  feature films over the past four decades. For over 40 years now they have been used on some of the best looking films, such as Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas, Monster’s Ball, and Roger Deakins had also used them to shoot Fargo as well, just to name a few. They have a classic look thanks in part to their older coatings and iris design which delivers beautiful flares and a unique bokeh when stopped down. Their older optical designs, vintage glass and coatings are the perfect tool to take some of the edge off of digital cameras. Zeiss Standard Speeds are S35 vintage cinema lenses that feature compact design and an impressive sharpness. They are small and lightweight, making them a great choice  for handheld and gimbal shots. The extensive focal length options make them enduring choices and as far as portraits, the Zeiss 135mm Standard Speed is able to bring an unmatched classic-film cinematic touch to modern digital cameras. The Zeiss 135mm Standard Speed offers a slight softness with a cool color rendition creating a vintage look that is perfect for faces. They most definitely flatter skin tones. The Standard Speed primes have plenty of character, personality and history, while the price certainly makes them a perfect option for productions on a budget.
