Build quality
editThe lens features a weather resistant aluminum barrel construction with a matte black finish and a rubber focus ring. Along with the Zeiss Batis Sonnar T* 85mm F1.8, the Batis Distagon 25mm was one of the first two lenses in which the traditional distance scale on the lens is replaced with an OLED display.[1] The OLED display is integrated into the top of the lens barrel, and highlights the focus distance and depth of field range of the lens,[1] which can be set to display at all times, never, or only when focusing manually.
