  • 28 mm for precise perspectives and versatile subjects

    28 mm offers a balanced wide-angle perspective that shows space without distorting subjects. Lines remain stable, compositions appear clear and controlled. This makes the focal length ideal for landscape, architecture, reportage and urban photography, where both the main subject and its surroundings are to be deliberately composed.

    Apochromatic optics for maximum detail fidelity and color purity

    The apochromatic design reduces chromatic aberrations on the image axis and across the entire image field almost completely. Fine details remain cleanly delineated, contrast edges sharp and colors neutral. Supported by special glasses with anomalous partial dispersion and double-sided aspherical elements, the lens achieves exceptionally high resolution—particularly visible on high-resolution Sony sensors.

    Consistent peak performance from 0.28 m to infinity

    The integrated floating mechanism ensures that optical performance remains stable across the entire focus range. Even at close range at 0.28 m, sharpness, contrast and detail rendering are maintained at a high level. This makes the lens suitable not only for classic wide-angle subjects, but also for detail-rich close-ups with strong visual impact.

    Modern E-mount integration for photo and video use

    The Sony E-mount version combines manual precision with contemporary technology. Electronic contacts transmit Exif data, support in-camera 5-axis image stabilization and enable focus magnification directly via the focus ring. The aperture ring clicks in 1/3 stops, but can be switched to de-clicked operation for video recording. The included metal screw-on lens hood keeps the setup compact and underscores the high-quality overall impression.
