I don't know whether there's a more concise one, but this works to `ls`
the ones that match:
ls -l *(e:'[[ $#REPLY == 30 ]] || reply=()':)
You could also wrap the expression there into a function:
globlen() { [[ $#REPLY == $GLOBLEN ]] || reply=() }
GLOBLEN=30
ls -l *(+globlen)
More info:
man zshall | less +/estring
