Wide-angle expression with natural perspective and excellent rendering performance. The 35mm focal length, which closely matches the human field of view, allows for easy capture of a wide range of scenes, from snapshots with a natural perspective and a balanced background to portraits that capture a natural expression while maintaining a comfortable distance from the subject. Furthermore, the maximum aperture of F1.8 not only creates a bokeh effect in close-up shots, but is also suitable for low-light shooting. Furthermore, consistent rendering performance across the entire F1.8 series ensures minimal discrepancies between shots and shots, even when switching lenses, resulting in consistent, high-quality results. Achieve high-speed, high-precision focusing. This lens's focus is driven by a linear motor along a guide axis, using a frame that holds the focusing lens. This configuration combines high-speed, high-precision AF performance with quiet AF operation. Furthermore, by speeding up communication control between the body and lens, both precision and speed are achieved. Furthermore, during video shooting, the quiet drive allows you to shoot without worrying about the focus drive noise, shortening post-production time. Compact and lightweight, yet delivering outstanding photo and video performance and high operability. Among S-series lenses, this large-aperture lens is compact and lightweight for easy portability. You can focus on shooting without feeling the weight of your equipment. Furthermore, the bright F-number delivers excellent imaging performance in a variety of scenes, from nightscapes and portraits to snapshots and landscapes. The F1.8 Prime Series offers unified imaging performance, size, and operability. The F1.8 Prime Series offers unified specifications and operability, reducing the burden of lens changes and other tasks, allowing you to focus more on your photography. By standardizing imaging performance across the F1.8 prime series, lens changes minimize discrepancies between shots, resulting in a consistent, high-quality production. The standardized size prevents interference with other equipment in the rig when changing lenses, and the nearly uniform center of gravity minimizes balancing when changing lenses, even when shooting video using gimbals or drones, reducing the burden on set. Furthermore, standardized operation, such as the placement of switches and focus rings, allows for smooth transitions between lenses, and the standard filter diameter eliminates the need to carry multiple filters with the same effect. S Series lenses enable high-resolution 4K video production. The optical design, optimized for high-resolution video shooting, and an optimized internal lens barrel structure suppress breathing, which changes the angle of view as the focus position shifts during video shooting. Furthermore, aperture microstep control smoothly controls f-stop changes, suppressing sudden exposure changes, even in scenes with significant changes in brightness. It also supports stable exposure control when panning during video recording. The focus ring can be switched between linear and non-linear settings. With the non-linear method, the focus shifts by a variable amount in response to the rotation speed of the focus ring, enabling agile focusing. With the linear method, the focus shifts by a fixed amount in response to the rotation of the focus ring. Furthermore, the rotation amount can be adjusted to suit the shooting scene, enabling intuitive and precise focusing like a mechanical lens when shooting video.
Compact and lightweight design protects the lens even in harsh shooting environments. The compact and lightweight design is dust- and splash-proof* and can be used in a wide range of scenes, allowing for mobile shooting. You can capture those rare shutter opportunities that suddenly appear, regardless of the weather or other environmental factors. It also protects your precious lens from water droplets and dust.
The compact and lightweight design fits comfortably in your hand, and the robust, high-quality design inspires photography. The compact and lightweight design fits comfortably in your hand like a familiar tool. The graphic lines express the path of light from the lens to the viewfinder, the vertical slit knurling strikes a balance between operability and design, and the "S" mark subtly asserts itself despite its compact size and light weight. The glossy black finish shared with the S series body brings joy to ownership, and its mobility and robustness broaden the scope of photographic expression.
