Description
The APO-LANTHAR 28mm F2 aspherical wide-angle lens was specially developed for the respective full-frame compatible mounts of Sony E-mount or Nikon Z-mount.
Optimized for full-frame sensors, the apochromatic design almost completely eliminates chromatic aberration on the axis and other aberrations while achieving the highest resolution and contrast rendition.
The optical system consists of 8 groups and 12 lenses, including 6 lenses made of special glass with anomalous partial dispersion and 2 double-sided aspherical lenses. The lens also has an integrated floating mechanism. This ensures consistent image quality from the minimum focusing distance of 0.28 m to infinity.
With its high speed of F2, this lens sets new standards for the performance of fast wide-angle lenses. The 12 aperture blades form an almost perfect circular shape, giving point light sources and out-of-focus objects a natural, harmonious bokeh.
The APO-LANTHAR 28mm F2 aspherical combines maximum optical performance with a compact design.

It also has an integrated distance encoder and is therefore compatible with cameras with 5-axis image stabilization in the housing, which use the distance information for subject stabilization.
The viewfinder image can be enlarged by turning the focus ring. The aperture ring rasterization is in 1/3 steps, but can be switched to stepless operation for video recordings.
A metal screw-on lens hood is included in the scope of delivery and ensures compact dimensions when the lens is mounted.
