Introducing the SEL1670Z: your go-to lens for any occasion. A lightweight, versatile mid-range zoom, it combines renowned Carl Zeiss optical performance with a constant F4 aperture, maximising detail across the focal range.
Founded in 1846, Carl Zeiss AG is a legend in the field of camera optics. Their lenses are renowned for exceptional clarity, brightness, resolution and contrast. The SEL1670Z features the acclaimed Zeiss T* anti-reflective coating, which minimises flare and ghosting to ensure crisp, clean image quality.
Advanced aspherical lens (AA lens) technology not only optimises image quality but also enables a significant reduction in overall lens size.
Built-in Optical SteadyShot™ image stabilisation within the lens ensures smooth, blur-free photos and videos when shooting handheld.
Instead of a standard polygon-shaped lens aperture, this lens features a 7-blade circular aperture for more natural, rounded defocusing or ‘bokeh’.
ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass ensures superior contrast, resolution, and colour while advanced aspherical (AA) and aspherical lens elements minimise distortion.
An internal focusing mechanism means the length of the lens remains constant, enabling easy handling, fast autofocusing, and a short minimum focusing distance. In addition, the filter thread at the front of the lens does not rotate – an asset when using a polarizing filter.
