The Zeiss Otus ML series is characterised by an extraordinary shallow depth of field that focuses the viewer's gaze precisely on what is important. At the same time, the beautifully harmonious bokeh - formed by ten aperture blades - creates smooth transitions, elegantly rendering story subjects.
Manual focusing is more than a method - it is a chance to get deeply in touch with your subject, giving you unëven control and creative freedom. With Zeiss Otus ML Lenses, manual focusing becomes an experience in itself. Based on the legendary Otus family, known as the best-in-class manual prime lenses, the Zeiss Otus ML offers a uniquely precise mechanical design that gives photographers complete control over their images. Focusing is controlled by a smooth, metal focusing ring based on a helicoïde mechanism.
The Zeiss Otus ML series offers a practical DeClick function for seamless aperture control. Using the supplied tool and a set screw on the bayonet surface, the locking mechanism can be deactivated, allowing for infinite and silent aperture adjustment. This enables smooth exposure transitions in video applications and provides precise brightness control during panning.

The accurate and easy-to-read yellow scales allow for quick and precise adjustments to maintain full control. This unique feeling of één with your equipment is supported by the compact and lightweight design.
