The lens features a weather resistant plastic exterior with a dedicated aperture ring, focusing ring, and detachable petal-type lens hood. It showcases a minimalist black exterior with a Zeiss badge on the side of the barrel. Given the 35mm lens' fast aperture of F1.4, it excels at low-light photography.
