Compact, with Superb Resolution

Samyang’s latest optical technology allows this large aperture wide-angle prime lens to achieve stunning corner-to-corner resolution, even at its maximum F1.8 setting. A total of 11 elements in 8 groups, with 7 special lenses (2 ASP, 3 HR, 2 ED) allow you to express your infinite creativity; especially suitable for astrophotography as it delivers awesome images with minimised spherical aberration and coma.

Shallow Depth of Field with Large Aperture F1.8

The AF 24mm F1.8 FE has a fast F1.8 aperture for crisp focus and beautifully blurred backgrounds. It gives you full control over depth-of-field so that you can isolate your
subject from the background. The 9-blade circular aperture contributes smooth, creamy, natural-looking bokeh.

Versatile Lens for Landscapes, astrophotography and even snapshots

The 24mm F1.8 FE lens provides a wide-angle of view of 83.7˚ and a short minimum focusing distance of 0.19m. This allows you to take photos in multiple environments, whether indoors or outdoors. 

Compact & Lightweight

The AF 24mm F1.8 lens in Sony FE Mount weighs only 230g  and is just 71.5mm in length. This small size and lightweight enhances mobility when used with compact E-mount mirrorless cameras. The matt finish, with laser-engraved font provides better readability and the tactile mounting index adds to the user convenience. The lens also features weather sealing in 5 locations, to protect from dust, light rain and snow and provide the ability to capture stunning images in less than perfect conditions.

Advanced Fast and Quiet Auto Focus for stills and movies

This lens features the latest STM (Stepping Motor), which allows a larger and heavier focus lens group to be controlled more quietly and precisely, providing superb image quality in both photos and videos.

Customisable Focus-Hold Button

Pressing and holding this button will keep the lens locked to that focusing distance. You can also assign other desired functions to the focus hold button through the menu setting on the camera body.

Custom Switch

Equipped with Samyang's Custom Switch, shooting and operation is more intuitive and simple. You can easily select various functions such as Aperture Control Mode or MF Mode from the Switch and enjoy the shooting mode that suits your personal preference. (More functions will be added through firmware updates in the future.)

Custom Mode – NEW function for Astrophotography

When you enters the custom mode, the LED indicator will blink red once and the focus will automatically move to the infinity position (Factory default setting value). You can save your own/desired focus position/value with the focus hold button.
