28mm f1.2 Large aperture

An Extremely Versatile Focal Length

The 28mm has an AoV of 75.4°. Compared to the trendy 50mm and 35mm, the lens can capture slightly more details from the environment which could help to tell a better story. Pair with the f/1.2 aperture, photographers can now have more control over how much background information is to be included and how isolated the subject is from its surrounding. This also gives more flexibility when framing the scene.

Perfect for street, documentary, landscape, portrait, astrophotography, and more.

Ultra-fast f/1.2 Aperture

With its f/1.2 Ultra-Fast Aperture, the lens can easily create a shallow depth of field and allow for easy subject separation. The large aperture is also good for getting lovely bokeh that gives the image a touch of artistic sense.

When wide opening, the lens easily creates a dreamy look with the subject remaining sharp.

Remarkable Sharpness at f/1.2

The 28mm lens is a high-performance prime lens that offers exceptional image quality for professional photographers. Incorporating two ultra-high refractive (UHR) elements and two extra-low dispersion (ED) elements that enhance sharpness and contrast, this lens delivers stunning details across the entire frame even at f/1.2 wide-open.

62mm Filter Thread

The lens is equipped with a 62mm filter thread. ND, CPL, or other screw-in filters can be easily used with the lens. No need to carry a heavy filter holder. Also, photographers can now shoot wide-open even in broad daylight simply by putting on an ND filter.

Video-Friendly

The 28mm lens is not only suited for photography. Its design is also optimized for fitting the needs of videographers.

Internal Focusing

The design of internal focusing avoids collision of the lens and other objects. And it can use the accessories designed to be set to a specific position such as polarizers. It also prevents dust from falling into the lens.

Aperture Click Switch Mechanism

The Aperture Ring Click Switch Mechanism allows you to choose whether to have a clicked or silent aperture ring. It is a useful function to support both your photography and video needs.
