Samyang 12mm F/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye Lens
For Micro Four-Thirds Mount




Lens Description
The Samyang 12mm F/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye is an ultra-wide prime designed for cameras with Four-Thirds (2X) sensors. This bright prime has a 12mm focal-length. It provides the same field of view as a 24mm lens on a Full-Frame camera.
This prime is capable of focusing down to 20cm from the imaging plane. The lens is not capable of autofocus and so the focus-distance must always be manually adjusted via the focus-ring.
This version has a Micro Four-Thirds lens mount. Follow this link to see all current compatible digital cameras: Micro Four-Thirds mount cameras with Four-Thirds (2X) or larger sensor.
