The Zeiss Touit Planar T* 1.8/32mm is a standard prime lens for Fujifilm X and Sony E mount, announced by Zeiss on September 18, 2012.[1] Along with the Zeiss Touit 2.8/12, it is one of the first two purely Zeiss-branded autofocus models with motor-assisted manual focus.[2]

Exterior construction

The lens features a minimalist matte-black plastic exterior with a Zeiss badge on the side of the barrel and a rubber focus ring.

Optics

The Touit 1.8/32 has "impressive" resolution, low chromatic aberration and "very good" bokeh.[3] Uncorrected, it has 2% barrel distortion and fairly high vignetting.

Autofocus

The lens has a direct current focus motor,[4] and according to Jamiya Wilson of The Phoblographer, focuses "quickly and accurately", and "very quietly".[5]
