Samyang SYIO2418-E 24 mm F1.8 Auto Focus Full Frame Wide Angle Compact Camera Lens for Sony E

Samyang has announced its AF 24mm F1.8 Full Frame Compact Wide Angle Lens for Sony E mount. It is its eleventh auto focus lens specifically engineered for Sony mirrorless cameras. Weighing only 8.1 ounces and measuring just 2.8 inches in length, this 24mm combines a compact and light form factor, a fast 1.8 aperture and a host of additional features that are unmatched by any other 24mm E mount lens in the market.

Combining a wide-angle perspective with a fast maximum aperture, this 24mm f/1.8 AF Compact Autofocus Lens from Samyang is designed for full-frame Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 36mm equivalent focal length when used on an APS-C camera body. Two extra-low dispersion elements, three high refractive index elements, and two aspherical elements are incorporated into the lens construction to help to control aberrations and distortions for increased clarity and sharpness. Ultra Multi-Coating has also been applied to all lens elements to reduce lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color fidelity. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture excels in difficult lighting conditions and enables greater control over depth of field and focus placement. The Linear STM autofocus motor provides fast, quiet focus, and the lens barrel incorporates a function switch and a focus hold button for optimal focus control.

This 24mm f/1.8 lens is designed for full-frame format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras and provides a 36mm equivalent focal length when used on APS-C-format cameras. Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture is ideal for working in low-light conditions and offers greater control over depth of field and focus position for selective focus applications. Two extra-low dispersion elements, two aspherical elements, and three high refractive index elements are incorporated within the lens design and help to control chromatic aberrations as well as reduce color fringing for sharper, clearer imagery. An Ultra Multi-Coating has been applied to all lens elements to suppress lens flare and ghosting for increased contrast and color accuracy. A non-rotating 58mm front filter mount enables the use of polarizing, graduated ND, and other filter types that require precise positioning. Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out-of-focus quality when using selective focus or shallow depth of field techniques.
