question

Is the case made by Pelican , and is is lockable , also is there any way to lock the zippers on the travel soft bag? There are 4 cut outs for lenses. Are there more Loxia lenses to be released ? Are the Loxia lenses sharper than Batis lenses ? I have all three Batis, and would like a case for these as well. Will Zeiss offer a case for them ?Thanks: Half Centurian
Asked by: Chris
Unfortunately, Zeiss does not indicate the manufacturer of the Zeiss Loxia Transport Case/Bag. The hard case does have holes for use with a standard TSA padlock. Your question concerning lens image quality is not quite balanced as the Loxia lenses and Batis lenses do not come in similar/equal focal lengths. The closest option would be the Zeiss Batis 25mm f/2 lens and the Zeiss Loxia 21mm f/2.8 lens. BOth lenses have nearly similar performance, though the Loxia lens is slightly sharper compared to the Batis lens, though the Batis lens is both brighter and has slightly better vignetting control. We only have access to information that has currently been released by Zeiss or announced in press releases. At this time, we do not have any information regarding newer Loxia lenses to be released or a case specifically designed for the Batis lenses.

question

Why is this set more expensive than buying the lenses/case individually?
Asked by: Joseph
The list price for the individual ZEISS Loxia lenses, transport case and LensGears comes to $6,356. The Loxia 4-Lens Bundle price for the same items is $5,720 (recently adjusted), reflecting a 10% price discount.
