I can imagine that many of you reading this article will say, "Oh no, that's sad. Anyway. . . " However, a post on the Fred Miranda forums stated that Zeiss has exited the photo industry, which we're not surprised about.
Let's be very honest here, Zeiss lenses are fantastic. They're capable in every single way. For years, they also had some of the best image quality you could ever get from a lens. Zeiss lenses were available for Canon EF, Nikon F, Sony E, Leica-M, and Fujifilm X cameras.
Zeiss makes some of the most beautiful lenses around, and their wide-angle options are no exception to this rule. Zeiss lenses are a work of art in themselves. They all have fantastic build qualities, they offer up razor-sharp images, beautifully dampened focus rings, and they produce colors that absolutely sing.
