The Touit 2.8/12 camera lens for mirrorless system cameras from Sony and Fujifilm has been honored by the European Imaging and Sound Association (EISA).

This award is presented for products that combine particularly innovative technologies with high-quality performance and design features. In 2013, a ZEISS camera lens was selected as the best in its class.

This new line of lenses features an outstanding optical and mechanical design that fully utilizes the potential of compact system cameras.
