When you buy a new ZI lens, does it come with a soft lens pouch and shade or do you have to purchase them separately?

My biogon 35 did not come with a pouch. Not even with a hood. Both are truly insignificant, to my taste. Their SLR lenses do include a hood, btw.

Yes, it is strange that the ZF etc SLR Zeiss lenses do come with the hood, but the ZM ones just the lens only. The ZM15 comes with a lens pouch. Not sure about the ZM 85/2 though.
The ZM15 comes with an integraded hood, I believe the ZM 18 is the same but not sure. The rest do not come with the hood need to purchase separately.

I like the hood, don't care about the pouch. A sock works fine.

Mine comes with both the pouch and hood. Love the lens.

Can confirm the ZM 18 Distagon comes with a lens hood but no pouch. You'll have to buy new Hexanon's to get a free leather pouch.

Contax G pouches are on ebay often.
