Not many brands make a 25mm lens. But Zeiss has made several of them. We’re talking about full-frame 25mm lenses — not those for Micro Four Thirds or APS-C lenses. In fact, Zeiss made several. In our 14 years of reviewing lenses, we’ve tested their 25mm f2 Batis, 25mm f2.4 Loxia, 25mm f2, and 25mm f1.4 Milvus. Truly, it’s a focal length that they decided to commit to. And it made sense — for years, the 25mm f2 Batis was one of the sharpest lenses for the Sony E mount. Why 25mm, though? Why not 24mm? Well, we have a fascinating story.
