SOLD: Zeiss Batis 18mm f/2.8 Sony E Mount! In Box.
THIS HAS BEEN SOLD
Hello everyone! Hope you are all having a wonderful weekend. Just wanted to post this here in case anyone is looking for a great deal on a fantastic lens. I am selling my well loved Zeiss Batis 18mm f/2.8 for Sony E Mount. I used this on the A7RIII and A9 for the last 7 months strictly for video, and I have since move to Canon for my video work. So I no longer need this lens.
It’s an amazing lens for photography or video, and the reviews tell the tale. Almost a perfect 5 stars at B&H Photo with 67 reviews.
My lens is optically perfect. Has one small scratch on the side (see photos below) and has a Voigtlander Bottom cap for some reason. I may find the Zeiss cap, and if so, that will be what it ships with. It comes in the box, with hood and this is as good as it gets in an 18mm range for Sony. Sells for $1400 new (what I paid) and I will let this go for $900 shipped within the USA. No PayPal fee. So $900 total, shipped.

Hi Steve,
Can I ask what Canon system your
switching to and why?
I was surprised and you have me wo dering why.
As I said, only for video work I do mostly outside of this site. I found the simple, cheap Canon M50 outperforms even my Sony A9 for video for my needs. Color and AF beat the Sony and that’s why I switched. I have also stated I will always have my Sony, Leica and others for photo work but for video, it’s Canon for me and I couldn’t be happier.
Please update your “My Gear” section sir!!
With what? All that is listed there is what I own for photography. It it updated and correct as of July 31st 2018.
OK. I was confused on the video camera you were using. You had a recent article where it seemed like you were going with the Panasonic, then I saw this post that said you were using Canon.
