Spectacular AoV
Ultra-wide angle lenses are highly sought by cinematographers because of their versatility in framing – able to capture landscapes and close-ups simultaneously. Featuring a 107° angle of view, breathtaking scenes can be captured in single shots.
Constant T2.9 Large Aperture
For some zoom lenses in the market, there’s a light loss when zooming. The scene appears to be dimmer when it is zoomed in. Maintaining a constant T2.9 aperture throughout the zoom range allows cinematographers to have the same exposure and ISO setting for multiple scenes.
Excellent Colour Rendition & Contrast
Designed with modern optical formula, this tiny 16-30mm image quality is excellent, offering good sharpness contrast.
The colour rendition of the whole series is matched for use as a set.
