Landscapes, architecture, interiors and night shooting

The 15 mm focal length captures a broad scene, making it well suited to landscapes, architecture and interiors. Thef/2.4maximum aperture expands its usefulness in low light, night landscapes and astrophotography.

Rectilinear 110° – ultra-wide without the typical fisheye look

The angle of view is approximately110°. Its rectilinear design aims to render straight lines more naturally, which is especially important for architecture and interiors.

15 elements in 11 groups and Neutrino Coating

The optical construction uses15 elements in 11 groupsincluding three HR, two ED and two aspherical elements.Neutrino Coatinghelps reduce aberrations, ghosting and flare while maintaining good contrast.

Focus Lock, Infinity Click and hyperfocal scale

Focus Locksecures the chosen focusing position, whileInfinity Clickmakes the infinity position easier to locate by feel. The hyperfocal scale assists with depth-of-field planning.

Focus from 0.28 m and 9 rounded blades

Minimum focusing distance is0.28 mallowing strong foreground emphasis. The diaphragm uses9 rounded bladesfor smoother rendering of out-of-focus areas.

95 mm front filters and 30 × 30 mm gelatin filters

A95 mm front threadaccepts conventional screw-in filters. A rear holder additionally supports30 × 30 mm gelatin filters.

Canon EF – EOS DSLRs and EOS R mirrorless cameras via adapter

This version uses theCanon EF mountand fits Canon EOS DSLRs with an EF mount directly, including full-frame and compatible APS-C models.

It can also be used on Canon EOS R mirrorless cameras with an RF mount through the originalCanon Mount Adapter EF-EOS R. Focusing remains manual.

Manual focus does not mean the lens is fully mechanical.Its built-in electronic module enables camera-controlled aperture, PASM modes, EXIF recording and focus confirmation.
