It's also ideal for vlogging, as the wide field of view helps capture the entire scene even when the camera is held at arm's length. The E 11mm f/1.8 Lens features state-of-the-art lens technology that reduces unwanted focus breathing and angle of view shifts when focusing. It also supports the breathing compensation function in compatible alpha cameras, further reducing unwanted angle of view shifts during focusing for smooth, high-quality movie footage. Thanks to a refined internal focus mechanism, the lens's length remains constant while focusing for ideal balance and handling. The lens also offers a natural, repeatable linear manual focus response, ensuring that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle manual control. Built for robust reliability, this lens is dust and moisture resistant, providing extra reliability for outdoor use in challenging conditions.
