    • Lens Mount Compatibility: Sony E-Mount, Sony E-Mount (Full-Frame)
    • Lens Type: Wide Angle Prime
    • Minimum Focal Length: 11 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 11 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/1.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

This incredibly compact and lightweight ultra-wide-angle 11mm APS-C prime offers dynamic perspectives, corner-to-corner sharpness, naturally rendered bokeh and large F1.8 aperture. Fast, precise, quiet AF, optical design for refined movies shooting and rugged reliability make it ideal for still and video content creators alike.

  • 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: A customizable focus hold button is provided for easy access and convenient control in just about any shooting situation. Other functions can be assigned to the focus hold button from compatible camera’s menu.
  • Instant auto/manual focus selection: Instantly switch between auto and manual focus via an AF/MF switch on the side of the lens. This makes operation faster and easier as you let the camera and lens focus for you or decide to take control and manually focus on the precise point you choose.
  • 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.
  • Petal-shaped, bayonet mount lens hood: ALC-SH169 petal-shaped, bayonet mount lens hood supplied.
  • 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.

    Very good in low light conditions

    Nice lens very lightweight. You’ll have really wide angle with this lens. Photo Quality is not as amazing as g master but is still very good quality, 1.8 aperture makes easy to low light conditions

    Sony E Mount 11mm

    I bought this lens for my Sony ZVE10 because I love taking my camera everywhere to record my kids, and it's incredible for my work. The videos and photos with this lens look spectacular. I love it. It's one of my favorite lenses for creating content for social media.

    Sony 11mm f1.8

    This product is great for getting those wide shot angles you can’t usually get with the sonys typical kit lens. The constant f1.8 is also amazing giving you the blurry background for up close shots such as vlogging. This camera overall for shooting videography is a great second choice.
