Brightin Star Fit for Fujifilm XF-mount 8mm
A 190° field of view, f/2.8 brightness, and a 5-blade aperture producing 10-pointed stars set this manual fisheye apart on Fujifilm X-mount. Its 11-element, 9-group design with two ED and three high-refraction elements delivers sharp center resolution and smooth bokeh in a 260g package. Astrophotographers requiring extreme wide-angle coverage for night skies and creative shooters seeking dramatic distortion in architectural work will find it most useful.
