The CPU also supports manual exposure settings, including those for camera casings that are not AI-compatible.

These quicker and faster handling capabilities of the ZF.2 lenses are especially useful under hectic shooting conditions.

The new ZF.2 series will be especially interesting for photo enthusiasts who value creative, high-quality images combined with the comfort of automatic settings.
