I love this lens. I assume it's durable. I don't even know why they ask that. It's such a beautiful focal length, wide, but not so wide you can't see anything. I feel so comfortable with it. I know people say we naturally see in 35mm focal length, but I think 28mm is closer. It has a spaciousness to it, a feeling of not being hemmed in, like a feeling of freedom. It's just this side of the Super-Angulon. It's really nice without being kind of I hate to say overdone, because I love the Super-Angulon, but almost enough is enough. I think 28mm is really nice and I could live with it for a very long time.

One of the best 28mm lens one could get for full frame cameras. Use cases exclude non stabilized night photography (due to 2.8 aperture) and where extreme corner sharpness is required, where a similar Nikon with floating element would be better.

This is a very well constructed lens, both mechanically and optically. It is larger and heavier than other 28mm lenses of this aperture. But on the positive side, this makes it easier to adjust the focus and aperture.

Great focal length everyday use. Sharp, built like a tank and timeless.

Contax Zeiss lenses are famous for the optical performance and build quality. This lens is particularly known for sharpness and beautiful color rendering. These older lenses don't have autofocus capabilities nor are they weather sealed, but other that that it is a perfect wide angle lense for the money. One thing that will set apart this lens from newer lenses is the organic feel they produce, this lens doesn't have that sterile sharpness. I highly recommend this lens to those who are looking for a classic high quality look in their work.

This lens is sharp wide open, and only gets better as you stop down. The contrast and color rendition are great, and it comes in a small, compact lens. Since the newer Zeiss lenses are also manual focus, you lose little in the way of functionality mounting these C/Y lenses via an adapter. Zeiss makes a newer 28mm f/2 lens, but it will cost you well over a thousand dollars, and you aren't likely to notice the difference.
