Zeiss released a new series of lenses, the Batis line, for Sony e-mount! For the beginning, Zeiss announced two lenses, the 25mm F2 and the 85 F1.8 both autofocus, and they say that more lenses will come!
These lenses are the first full-frame autofocus lenses with an OLED display. The innovative OLED display shows the distance of the focal plane from the camera system and the depth of fields.
