This lens, belonging to the “aperture” Planar series, has the appropriate characteristics: its aperture value is f / 1.4. By type it refers to fixes, the focal length is 50 mm. Another feature is the lack of autofocus, focus is carried out exclusively manually, which can be especially useful for professional photographers. In addition to bayonet connections Canon EF, Nikon F and Pentax K, it is available in the version for the M42 threaded mount.

Everything is relative: interchangeable lenses for cameras from third-party manufacturersLenses from alternative brands: money down the drain or an increase in image quality?
