Features
  • Ultra-wide-angle 11 mm large F1.8 aperture prime for stills and movies

    With an 11 mm focal length for dynamic images and a large F1.8 aperture for deep bokeh, this 6.5 oz. APS-C format lens has the mobility you need to capture stunning still and movies anywhere.

  • Large F1.8 maximum aperture for deep, naturally rendered bokeh

    A large F1.8 max. aperture delivers expressive, naturally rendered bokeh in deep, impressive images. 0.4 ft minimum focus and 0.2x magnification let you get close to the subject while producing beautifully defocused backgrounds

  • High resolution throughout an ultra-wide field of view

    Innovative optics deliver high resolution right out to the image edges. Optimal placement of three aspherical elements ideally correct field curvature for excellent resolution throughout the image area.

  • Compact and lightweight for extraordinary shooting freedom

    This compact, lightweight lens is a perfect match for E-mount APS-C as well as Super35 cameras, providing easy handling that is great for long handheld or grip-mounted shooting sessions.

  • Advanced autofocus maximizes the camera’s speed potential

    Two linear motors give this large-aperture lens impressively fast, precise autofocus and tracking performance for both stills and movies.

  • A versatile tool for movie shooters

    An 11 mm field of view and large F1.8 aperture make it easy to shoot subjects against sweeping background with beautiful bokeh.

  • Advanced optics for refined movies with minimal breathing

    State-of-the-art lens technology packed into this remarkable large-aperture ultra-wide lens reduces unwanted focus breathing and angle of view shifts when focusing.

  • Consistent balance and center of gravity for easy handling

    Thanks to a refined internal focus mechanism, the lens’s length remains constant while focusing for ideal balance and handling.

  • Natural, repeatable linear manual focus response

    For professional manual focusing feel and repeatable response, Linear Response MF ensures that the focus ring responds directly and linearly to subtle manual control.

  • Dust and moisture resistant for robust reliability

    Dust and moisture resistant design provides extra reliability for outdoor use in challenging conditions. Silicon seals around buttons and switches and a rubber gasket around the lens mount greatly reduce the likelihood of dust and moisture incursion

  • Aspherical and ED glass lens elements suppress spherical and chromatic aberrations

    This compact lens includes 3 aspherical and 3 ED glass elements that ensure corner-to-corner resolution and well controlled chromatic aberration throughout the image area achieving natural color without color bleeding

  • Focus hold button can be customized for various functions

  • Compatible with 55 mm threaded filters on an ultra-wide-angle lens

    Despite being an ultra-wide-angle prime lens, the E 11 F1.8 accepts standard 55 mm threaded front mounted filters – rare in a lens of this focal length.
