I spotted an incredible fractal pattern while walking through a slot cave. In this situation, most cameras would require a bracketed photo. With the A7S I was able to capture this with a single underexposed photo and then bumped up the shadows in Lightroom later.

New Samyang 135mm lens tested at Photozone, ePhotozine and Per Kylberg.

Peter Kylberg tested the Samyang 135mm f/2.0 Emount lens on the A7r and A6000:

135mm is a very interesting focal length, for its perspective and creative possibilities. The Samyang is affordable, not too heavy and the image quality is better than Sony 70-200/4. I like it a lot.

Ergonomic it is a mixed bag: Nice to hold and handle on both A7R and A6000, but the grip on the aperture ring is too slippery in relation to its firmness.

Compared to the 70-200 it is of course not very versatile. The zoom has OSS, the 135 has 2.0

Using enlargement on the EVF it is rather easy to nail sharpness – essential on a tele. Color peaking is not accurate enough. Above image is free hand but at 1/2000 sec.

Another thing of interest for A7R owners: No problem at all with shutter vibration loss of sharpness! I can’t say that about the 70-200 which can have that problem (also on tripod) 1/40 to 1/250sec.

Color: Sony(Zeiss) lenses on A7R tends to go towards yellow. (create color profiule with colorchecker passport i my solution). The 135/2 tends to go in the opposite direction, to be a bit cool.

Finally: I really like this lens! Planing to go to the mountains as soon as midnight sun sets in I will probably chose the 135 over the 70-200. Despite versatility, despite OSS.

Both lenses also got tested on a Canon camera at:

Photozine (Click here) tested the Samyang 135mm T/2.2 ED UMC Cine version:

The image quality is almost stunning with very good results at T2.2 and an excellent if not outstanding quality at medium aperture settings and across the image frame. A very low amount of lateral CAs also helps to increase the sharpness perception. Distortions are absent whereas the vignetting is quite typical for a full format lens in this class.

ePhotozine (Click here) posted the Samyang 135mm f/2 ED UMC Lens Review:

Those interested in a fast 135mm, who are either on a budget or don’t need autofocus for their work, should certainly consider this lens. It’s more than capable of delivering sharpness on a par with high-end lenses, but at a fraction of the cost. This, coupled with the excellent build quality and smooth manual focus action make this lens an excellent buy overall.

You can get the lens at BHphoto:

135mm f/2.0 for Sony A-mount (Click here) and Sony E-mount (Click here).

135mm t/2.2 Cine for Sony A-mount (Click here) and Sony E-mount (Click here).

Meet our new trainees

This week we introduce you to our new trainees in our Global Graduate Program. Let's start with Peng from China. Judith and Robert will follow over the next few days.

Originally from China, Peng is a product management trainee with our Medical Technology business group in Berlin. He came to Germany to do a degree in mechanical engineering and medical technology at the RWTH Aachen University, which he completed successfully. "I already experienced ZEISS in close-up as an intern during my studies. I was particularly fascinated by the excellent corporate culture and the different career opportunities that the company offers. The Trainee Program at ZEISS is an excellent stepping stone into a future career as it offers the possibility of gaining a cross-departmental overview of the company. The highlight of the program is an international assignment aimed at confronting participants with other cultures, enabling them to become active and networked in a global environment. I would like to thank ZEISS for giving me this opportunity. I look forward to constantly enhancing my performance, accepting responsibility and being successful together with ZEISS."
