Meike 12mm f/2.0 12mm
Its 12mm focal length (18mm equivalent on APS-C) and f/2.0 aperture deliver a 97° ultra-wide view with strong low-light capability, aided by two aspherical elements for edge-to-edge sharpness. The compact 277g metal construction and damped manual focus ring offer precise control and portability for travel or video work. Best suited for Sony E-mount landscape and architecture photographers who need a wide, manual prime lens without the cost of autofocus alternatives.
