SAMY6 SY10M-PEN
The 10mm f/2.8 prime delivers a true 110-degree ultra-wide field of view on APS-C sensors, using three high-precision elements including two aspherical and one ED lens for edge-to-edge sharpness. Its Nano Crystal Coating and close-focusing distance of 24.1 cm add versatility for tight spaces, while the internal focus design keeps the integrated petal hood correctly oriented. This lens is best for architectural and real estate photographers who need dramatic perspectives without front element rotation when using polarizing filters.
