Camera lens properties i Camera lens properties A camera lens (also known as photographic lens, objective lens or photographic objective) is an optical lens or assembly of lenses used in conjunction with a camera body and mechanism to make images of objects either on photographic film or on other media capable of storing an image chemically or electronically. While in principle a simple convex lens will suffice, in practice a compound lens made up of a number of optical lens elements is required to correct (as much as possible) the many optical aberrations that arise. Some aberrations will be present in any lens system. It is the job of the lens designer to balance these out and produce a design that is suitable for photographic use and possibly mass production. A lens may be permanently fixed to a camera, or it may be interchangeable with lenses of different focal lengths, apertures, and other properties. More information...
Lens type i Lens type With photo lenses, a further distinction is made according to the angle of view which determines the focal length for a given image format. More information...	Wide angle lens i Wide angle lens In photography and cinematography, a wide-angle lens refers to a lens whose focal length is substantially smaller than the focal length of a normal lens for a given film plane. This type of lens allows more of the scene to be included in the photograph, which is useful in architectural, interior and landscape photography where the photographer may not be able to move farther from the scene to photograph it. More information... , Prime lens i Prime lens In film and photography, a prime lens is either a photographic lens whose focal length is fixed, as opposed to a zoom lens, or it is the primary lens in a combination lens system. More information...
Lens mount i Lens mount A lens mount is an interface — mechanical and often also electrical — between a photographic camera body and a lens. It is confined to cameras where the body allows interchangeable lenses, most usually the single lens reflex type or any movie camera of 16 mm or higher gauge. Lens mounts are also used to connect optical components in instrumentation that may not involve a camera, such as the modular components used in optical laboratory prototyping which join via C-mount or T-mount elements. More information...	Nikon-F
Focal length i Focal length The focal length of an optical system is a measure of how strongly it converges (focuses) or diverges (diffuses) light. A system with a shorter focal length has greater optical power than one with a long focal length. More information...	18 - mm
Focal Length APS-C / DX (35mm film equivalent) i Focal Length APS-C / DX (35mm film equivalent) In photography, the 35 mm equivalent focal length is a measure that indicates the angle of view of a particular combination of a camera lens and film or sensor size. The term is useful because most photographers experienced with interchangeable lenses are most familiar with the 35 mm film format. More information...	33.60 mm
Sensor compatibility	Vollformat
Filter thread i Filter thread A filter thread is a connecting thread of photo and video lenses for optical filters. This thread is usually located on the front just before the front lens. Most lenses have a separate mount for lens hoods. More information...	77 mm
Number of lenses i Number of lenses A lens is an optical device which transmits and refracts light, converging or diverging the beam. More information...	14
Number of lens groups i Number of lens groups Specifies how many groups the lenses are divided into.	12
Fixed front lens	Yes
Internal focusing i Internal focusing Internal focusing, abbreviated IF, is a type of lens design in which the distance is not adjusted by shifting the entire lens, but only one or more lenses within the lens. The remaining lenses, especially the front lens, maintain their distance from the image capture plane (filament net, film or image sensor), which does not change the overall length of the lens. More information...	Yes

Focusing i Focusing In geometrical optics, a focus, also called an image point, is the point where light rays originating from a point on the object converge. Although the focus is conceptually a point, physically the focus has a spatial extent, called the blur circle. This non-ideal focusing may be caused by aberrations of the imaging optics. In the absence of significant aberrations, the smallest possible blur circle is the Airy disc, which is caused by diffraction from the optical system's aperture. Aberrations tend to get worse as the aperture diameter increases, while the Airy circle is smallest for large apertures. More information...
Manual focus i Manual focus It is possible to focus manually. The autofocus is therefore not used.	Yes
Minimum focus distance i Minimum focus distance The shortest distance supported.	25 cm

Diaphgragm properties i Diaphgragm properties In optics, a diaphragm is a thin opaque structure with an opening (aperture) at its center. The role of the diaphragm is to stop the passage of light, except for the light passing through the aperture. More information...
Minimum aperture f/ i Minimum aperture f/ In optics, an aperture is a hole or an opening through which light travels. More specifically, the aperture of an optical system is the opening that determines the cone angle of a bundle of rays that come to a focus in the image plane. The aperture determines how collimated the admitted rays are, which is of great importance for the appearance at the image plane. If an aperture is narrow, then highly collimated rays are admitted, resulting in a sharp focus at the image plane. If an aperture is wide, then uncollimated rays are admitted, resulting in a sharp focus only for rays with a certain focal length. This means that a wide aperture results in an image that is sharp around what the lens is focusing on and blurred otherwise. The aperture also determines how many of the incoming rays are actually admitted and thus how much light reaches the image plane (the narrower the aperture, the darker the image for a given exposure time).
