[Product features]
1.Ultra wide-angle lens with focal length equivalent to 18mm (35mm format equivalent) allows you to capture images in a wide range of scenes with its wide angle of view.
In addition, the adoption of a large-diameter circular aperture allows for soft background blur. The shallow depth of field effectively separates the subject from the background, allowing for photographic expressions unique to ultra-wide angles, where the background is compressed.
Another attractive feature is the natural and soft bokeh produced by the use of a 7-blade circular aperture.
2.A compact and lightweight lens suitable for APS-C cameras, and also compatible with gimbals.
The AF motor is Samyang's proprietary Linear STM (Stepping Motor), which allows for quieter and more accurate control of the lens, allowing you to quickly and accurately capture everything from photos to videos.
3. Updated various exteriors. It has a modern design with a matte exterior finish and a new red ring design, and the use of a micro-patterned focus ring improves the feel of operation. In addition, in order to accommodate not only the design but also various shooting environments, the lens is more effectively protected with weather sealing and rear protective glass.
