Basically zoth lenses are characterized by a solid construction (Dragonfly finish version). The body is made of magnesium aluminum alloy combined with a high-quality composite. This ensures durability and resistance to weather conditions at a relatively low weight. Dust and moisture resistance give the possibility of confidently using those lenses outdoors, even in harsh weather conditions.
Also, both of the lenses are equipped with the Click / Declick switch - a feature now available on Irix photographic lenses for the Sony system. It allows to choose between gradual and smooth iris ring operations.
