Samyang 12mm f/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye

(2 customer reviews)

The Samyang 12mm f/2.8 ED AS NCS Fisheye is a camera glass that provides an ultra-wide fisheye perspective. It has a manual focus system which requires the user to adjust the focus ring to get a sharp image. The lens has 12 elements in 8 groups to provide high-quality optics. The lens coating is NCS which helps to reduce ghosting and flare. The build quality of the lens is good with a sturdy construction. The lens has a maximum aperture of f/2.8 which allows more light to enter the camera and helps in low light situations. The resolution of the lens is high and provides sharp images.

Alternative lenses for this type of perspective include rectilinear wide-angle lenses which provide a more natural perspective but don’t have the fisheye distortion. The bokeh of this lens is not a major factor as it is designed to capture a wide-angle view. The manufacturing time of the lens is not mentioned.
