The black C Biogon T* 35mm f/2.8 ZM from ZEISS is distinguished by its elegant design and adaptability, making it a remarkably compact wide-angle prime lens tailored for M-mount rangefinder cameras. The 'C' designation signifies the lens's streamlined profile and traditional optical architecture, which work together to deliver images with authentic color accuracy and natural representation. The Biogon optical design effectively minimizes distortion, while the inclusion of one anomalous partial dispersion element mitigates chromatic aberrations and color fringing, enhancing overall clarity and color precision. Furthermore, a T* anti-reflective coating has been applied to diminish lens flare and ghosting, thereby improving contrast in challenging lighting situations.

• Type 'C' lens refers to this lens's classic aesthetic and exceptionally compact design.
  
  
• Biogon optical concept benefits the wide-angle focal length by helping to virtually eliminate distortion for clean, realistic rendering.
  
  
• One anomalous partial dispersion element reduces chromatic aberrations and color fringing for improved color accuracy and clarity.
  
  
• ZEISS T* anti-reflective coatings have been applied to each lens surface to help minimize reflections in order to provide greater image clarity, contrast, and color fidelity.
  
  
• Manual focus design enables a minimum focusing distance of 2.3'.
