I’ve had a great opportunity to get an early look at the just announced today Zeiss Milvus Distagon T* 18mm f/2.8 (2.8/18mm).  I love the look of this lens, love the focal length, and now I get to find out if I love the image quality.  It stands as a more compact option (with an arguably better focal length) than the Milvus 21mm, and a much smaller, more accessible lens than the expensive yet amazing Milvus 15mm (also just announced in Milvus build).  I’ll be giving it a rigorous review over the next few weeks, so stay posted.  My hope is that it lives up to its beautiful build and optical promise…along with its eye watering price tag of $2299.  In the meantime watch for images to continue to be added in this space during my review!
