Product details

With the Samyang 8mm F2.8 II, the Korean lens manufacturer Samyang presents the optimized version of its bestseller. Eleven multi-coated glass lenses are responsible for crisp contrast and incredible sharpness. Combined with three ED (extra low dispersion) and two aspherical lenses, image errors are minimized.

Characteristic of fisheye lenses, in addition to the wide angle of view, is the extreme depth of field. The close focusing limit begins at just 30 cm, allowing for photos from unusual perspectives. Whether for tight-space reports, impressive panoramas, or distinctive sports shots, the Samyang 8mm F2.8 II is the ideal companion.

Optimized for photographers using CSC or APS-C cameras who still want to capture a lot in their images. With a brightness of f/2.8, there is still enough reserve to shoot handheld even in low-light conditions. The Samyang 8mm F2.8 II is the perfect companion for architecture photography enthusiasts, landscape photographers, and for capturing interiors.
