The name of the reputable German manufacturer of optics Carl Zeiss has been on the public's lips for over a century and a half. In close cooperation with him, advanced Sony Z (or ZA) lenses are produced. They are distinguished by greatly improved optical and mechanical properties, as well as by no means cheap cost.

Among peers, “Zeiss” Sony lenses are recognizable by the blue “ZEISS” nameplate on the body. Their development and production have been established at the Japanese brand's own facilities according to Zeiss designs. This is easy to see from the legendary optical designs: Sonnar, Planar, Distagon, Vario-Tessar, etc. The type of optical design is often indicated in the expanded name of Sony Zeiss-Alpha lenses.

Sony Z lenses are produced under the close supervision of the reputable German company Carl Zeiss.

The Sony Z optics park is dominated by fast fixed lenses, diluted with advanced models with a variable set of focal lengths and a constant aperture throughout the zoom range. Sony Zeiss optics demonstrate high levels of sharpness and detail across the entire field of the frame, a contrasting and juicy picture, and draws wonderful bokeh. It is chosen by knowledgeable photographers with impeccable taste.
