DZOFILM
Its APO design with 15 elements in 10 groups delivers sharp, full-frame images with minimal chromatic aberration, while the T2.8 aperture and 8-inch close focus enable dramatic ultra-wide perspectives. The robust aluminum alloy build remains lightweight at 725g, and the 270° focus rotation provides precise, tactile manual control for deliberate composition. This lens is best for cinematographers needing a reliable, wide-angle prime for narrative work on PL or EF mount systems.
