This lens is perfect for capturing sweeping landscapes in their entirety, as well as in any other situation where you need to get more in the frame. With an impressive minimum focussing distance of only 12cm, this lens enables you to get closer, opening up the way for more creative wide-perspective shots which can help to create alternate images with more dramatic perspectives.
Even though the lens is constructed using precision-aluminium parts and an all-metal barrel, it still only weighs 220g, making it perfect for travel photographers who prefer compact, lightweight lenses that retain image quality. A dust- and splash-proof mount is fitted to help stop contamination from dust and water. The tactile knurled metal lens hood, focus ring and aperture ring improve the grip on the lens for greater control when in unique situations such as mountaineering. Included with the lens is a magnetic metal lens cap which further improves ease of use. As a result of its compact design, the lens features a 55mm filer thread, similar to other compact lenses, making it easy to swap filters and reduce overall kit weight.
