Zeiss always make lenses the oldschool way, build like a tank.
I think if they make it light, no one will pay that kind of money for it.
Look at the nikon G lenses now..so light compare to their old lenses. Feels cheap...

I love my 35 distagon alot too. Using it more than the 55.. Hmm.. I'm more troubled with the size than weight.. 650g is still OK (for me)...The 35 is tad too big on A7 bodies but still manageable. Anything bigger will really be too big..

Hi, if you really like the rendering, I suggest instead a carrying solution for this setup. I used the Peak Design capture camrea clip with their clutch system secured with their leash strap to my belt. An alternative will be the spyder holster which is a better mechanical quality. These systems allow fast draw and usage.

650g for a lens.. F1.4 and full frame. I think its still alright (of cos if it can be lighter..it could be better.) But the size is big..and the front element is 72... Comparing to other brands or even the A mount 35 G glass. This FE is consider big.(but according to many people online been saying..its becos of the A7 series body..the sensor..the distance etc etc..(lots of technical talk)
Nonetheless, I am happy with the pictures coming out from this Fe 35. If it were to be bigger.. I may not purchase it.
Or perhaps.. in time to come there might be smaller n better 35. That's when maybe time to drop this fat but great glass.
Batis line will be expanding.

Ya, but 1.4 a bit soft. 1.7 still not bad. Anyway sorry for the lousy resolution of the pic. I dunno why it had been converted to so low quality. ha ha

That's a good buy. Gxgx on the purchase. I love the lens too and it's on my camera most of the time even when I'm traveling and for obvious reason of course, because of it's bokeh!
