The Amazing Zeiss 35MM Distagon ZM

Selected project works by Jorge TorralbaView more projects from Jorge Torralba

Captured with the Zeiss and processed using the Velvia 50 preset in DxO Film Pack 8, this shot perfectly illustrates why the Zeiss remains my all time favorite 35. There is a specific pop to the Zeiss that is hard to beat.

The Zeiss Distagon 35mm f/1.4 ZM is widely considered one of the absolute finest 35mm lenses ever created for the Leica M system. While it carries a slightly larger footprint than standard M mount glass, its clinical sharpness, flawless micro contrast, and legendary rendering far outweigh any negatives of its size. This diverse collection of images highlights just how practical and reliable it is in any shooting scenario. Simply put, the performance of this lens is Amazing !
