A Compact Superb-Resolution 24mm F1.8 Prime Lens

Samyang’s latest optical technology achieves stunning corner-to-corner resolution from maximum F1.8 aperture in a large aperture wide-angle prime lens. 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 you can get awesome images with minimized spherical and coma aberration.

[New] Custom Mode for Astrophotography

The Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 Lens features a new function titled “Custom Mode” with an “LED indicator” for astrophotography. The “Custom Mode” can be operated through the newly-designed Focus Hold button. Once the user enters the custom mode, the LED indicator will blink once, and the focus will automatically move to the infinity position. *Users can save their own focus position with the focus hold button.

Compact & Lightweight with Modern Design

The Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 Lens weighs only 230g(8.1oz) and 71.5mm(2.8in) in length. Small size and lightweight enhance mobility when used with compact E-mount mirrorless cameras. Its matt finishing with the laser engraved font provides better readability and the tactile mounting index adds to the convenience of the users. Also features weather sealing for 5 spots to protect from light dust, rain and snow and provide the ability to capture stunning images in less than perfect conditions.

24mm Focal Length can Be Used for Landscapes, Indoors, and Even Snaps

The Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 Lens provides a wide-angle of view of 83.7˚ and a short minimum focusing distance of 0.19m(0.62ft). Which allows you to take photos in various environments, whether indoors or outdoors. Combined with this wide-angle lens, you can freely create your own perspective with creativity.

Shallow Depth of Field with Large Aperture F1.8

The Samyang AF 24mm F1.8 Lens 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 and the background, and the 9-blade circular aperture which contributes smooth, creamy, natural-looking bokeh.

Advanced Fast and Quiet AF for Stills and Movies

Now Autofocus needs to consider not only how more accurately and quickly it captures images, but also how quiet and smooth it is. The AF 24mm F1.8 FE features the latest STM(Stepping Motor), a larger and heavier focus lens group can be controlled more quietly and precisely, providing excellent image quality in both photos and videos.
