Product details

Users of APS-C cameras often face the dilemma of extended focal lengths due to the crop factor. This means that so-called wide-angle lenses do not deliver what the lens's nominal value promises.

Samyang addresses this with the Samyang 12mm F2.0. This prime lens, specifically designed for MFT and APS-C cameras, is the ideal wide-angle reportage lens for users of mirrorless system cameras and smaller DSLR cameras. With a brightness of f/2.0, this lens offers enough reserves to take handheld photos even in low-light conditions. Landscape and nature photography enthusiasts will also find it appealing.

A minimum focusing distance of just 20 cm allows for creative design and composition possibilities. Whether it's a portrait, a situation at an event, or a sunset to be captured on the sensor, this lens delivers.

For this manually focusing 12mm lens for Sony E-Mount, 12 lenses in 10 groups have been used. Two of the lenses are aspherical to avoid image errors, supported by an ED lens. This effectively minimizes ghosting and any aberrations. This lens is known for its crisp contrasts and balanced color reproduction. The glass elements have been multi-coated to ensure maximum light transmission. Nano coatings on the outer lenses further guarantee minimal reflections.
