Product Description
With a penchant for capturing striking wide-angle views, Opteka’s 12mm f/2.8 lens for Sony E brings an impressive and fresh perspective to your photography. Featuring an optimized design, this lens uses a series of 12 optical glass elements (one SD super-low dispersion) in 10 groups to reduce chromatic and spherical aberrations throughout the aperture range. Its aperture control ring enables smooth adjustments during shooting. From its click stop aperture and ridged focus ring to its lightweight all metal housing, Opteka’s 12mm will bring you bright, color-accurate photos with a stunning degree of contrast. HD anti-reflective coating ensures that veiling, flare and ghosting are minimized while the manual focus and aperture ring provide the ability to gain precise control over your focus and exposure. An ultra-soft nylon pouch with protective lining safely stores the lens for travel.

Customer Reviews
Bought and returned.The Good...Color, low distortion, center sharpness, construction, price.The not so good...Corner sharpness wasn't that good, I noticed in the upper left the most. The other thing, and the one that bothered me the most was that it seemed to shift focal lengths. I noticed it and so did a reviewer in a video that I found after I purchased it. Not sure how much but it seemed to go from 12mm to something in the area of 14-15mm. I wanted a super wide, not something with a variable focal length.
