Fairly lightweight. Super sharp as you would expect for Zeiss. The color rendition is excellent. Used for astrophotography. Would recommend.

As a professional photographer, one of the biggest issues I have when using a wide lens is dealing with a fish-eye like distortion on the edge of the pictures. The Basis 18mm is not only the widest lens Ive had the pleasure to use, but is free of all distortion. I have been using the Batis 18mm f/2.8 wide lens with my Sony A7r ii, and have been amazed with the results (have attached a few photos taken with this lens to show you its amazing ability to capture an environment in its entirety). Additionally the lens is remarkably lightweight, but feels sturdy and is designed flawlessly. This lens is particularly useful if you are interested in capturing: -Interiors of buildings (no other lens can capture the amount of detail and range of space quite like this one) -Nature scenes -Concerts or events -Architecture -POV style photos (what drew me most to this lens was the ability to capture photos that appear as full and deep as they did to the naked eye)

I like the Batis 18 a lot. I prefer it to the Sony 16-35. I have the Batis 25 (my favorite everyday lens) and the Batis 85. All are wonderful lenses that focus very well, are sharp wide open, provide great color and contrast and are of modest size and weight that makes them a joy to shoot. The only negative I can think of is that 18mm is quite wide, takes some time to learn to use well, and is not a good focal length to be stuck in for general photography. If you want this focal length, it is hard to beat.
