Excellent optical performance throughout the image

Three double-sided aspherical lenses and two SLD glass elements are effectively arranged to achieve high optical performance from a wide aperture of F1.4. Sagittal reflection is also well corrected, ensuring sharp, clear images from edge to edge, even in starry night scenes where fine detail and sharpness are essential.

Compact and lightweight design for excellent portability

The effective placement of double-sided aspherical elements has resulted in a compact and lightweight design, with a total length of 69.4 mm and a weight of 225 g*1, despite its wide angle and large aperture.

This ensures high mobility, making the lens easy to carry for travel and outdoor scenes. The lens is also compatible with shooting grips and gimbals.
