XuanLens ORF 32mm
Recycled from a disposable camera into a 35g body cap, this 32mm f/10 pancake lens delivers a distinct lo-fi, soft-focus retro look with a fixed aperture and a focus-free design sharp from 1.5 meters to infinity. Its truly pocketable size and manual-only operation make it an unobtrusive tool for spontaneous shooting, embracing the imperfections of its resin optics. This lens is best for street photographers and casual shooters who intentionally seek the vignetted, analog character of a toy camera on their Canon RF mirrorless body.
