My Zeiss Batis 18 was delivered yesterday. For the price, I could have also bought an FE 14mm f1.8 GM (100 euros more). A friend had the Batis 18 for quite some time and then swapped it for an FE 20/1.8G, which he later really regretted because, in his opinion, the images with the 20/1.8 look flat compared to the Batis. I’ve read several similar comments online. I had looked at some sample images taken with the 14/1.8 GM and the 20/1.8G beforehand, but they didn’t convince me.
Since I already own all the other Batis lenses and didn’t want to give up the Zeiss T* coating, I went with the Batis 18. Today, while out and about, I took a few test shots and am really impressed. The lens was introduced about 9 years ago, yet it is still extremely sharp, has rich, beautiful contrast, and delivers great colors—just as I know from the other Batis lenses—and it is very well corrected for chromatic aberrations. The images are anything but flat and instead convey a strong sense of spatial depth. I’m a bit annoyed that I didn’t buy it 5–6 years ago. I actually thought I wouldn’t have much use for this focal length, but now I’m finding that it’s very suitable for everyday use.
