Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 135mm f/2.5 Lens for Nikon Z
Key Features
  • Z-Mount Lens/Full-Frame Format
  • Aperture Range: f/2.5 to f/22
  • Two Extra-Low Dispersion Elements
  • Two Ultra-High Refraction Index Elements
A fast telephoto prime, the Nikon Z-mount Creator 135mm f/2.5 from Mitakon Zhongyi pairs bright and advanced optics with efficient handling and design. Two extra-low dispersion elements and two ultra-high refraction index elements are incorporated within the lens and help to markedly reduce chromatic aberrations for increased clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy when photographing in strong lighting conditions. The f/2.5 maximum aperture benefits working in difficult lighting and affords greater control over depth of field for using selective focus techniques. The robust metal barrel of the lens is complemented by depth of field and distance scales, which pair with the manual focus design for greater control and use of pre- and zone focusing techniques. Additionally, the lens incorporates a retractable lens hood that helps to minimize lens flare and ghosting.

Mitakon Zhongyi Creator 135mm f/2.5 Overview

A fast telephoto prime, the Nikon Z-mount Creator 135mm f/2.5 from Mitakon Zhongyi pairs bright and advanced optics with efficient handling and design. Two extra-low dispersion elements and two ultra-high refraction index elements are incorporated within the lens and help to markedly reduce chromatic aberrations for increased clarity, sharpness, and color accuracy when photographing in strong lighting conditions.

The robust metal barrel of the lens is complemented by depth of field and distance scales, which pair with the manual focus design for greater control and use of pre- and zone focusing techniques. Additionally, the lens incorporates a retractable lens hood that helps to minimize lens flare and ghosting.

  • Prime telephoto Nikon Z-mount lens designed for both APS-C and full-frame sensors. On Nikon APS-C-sized sensors, the 35mm-equivalent focal length will be 202.5mm.
  • Composed of high quality ultra-low dispersion elements that form ultra-sharp images with minimal chromatic aberration.
  • Bright f/2.5 maximum aperture is well-suited for working in low-light conditions and also provides greater control over the focus position when using shallow depth of field techniques.
  • Manual focus design is complemented by both depth of field and distance scales for utilizing pre-focusing techniques.
  • Nine-blade rounded diaphragm contributes to a smooth and pleasing bokeh quality.
  • A built-in retractable lens hood helps to shield the front lens element from stray light to prevent lens flare and ghosting.

I am thrilled. A super sharp high-quality 135mm lens for an unbelievably low price. Some say a bit large but I have no complaints. The Mitakon Zhongyi Creator Is well worth its weight.

A STEAL of a lens

This lens is: Heavy. Has a pretty long focus throw. Wiggles a little more than I'd like at the mount when focusing. However, it is EXCELLENT, and I love it. INCREDIBLY sharp. Great rendering. All photos from me are SOOC Fine JPG from a Z7ii in Monochrome mode scaled to 1200px on the long edge. Punch-ins are 100% crops at 1200x800.
