Sony E 16mm F/2.8 Pancake Lens SEL16F28
The E 16mm f/2.8 Lens from Sony is a suitable travel companion. Providing a 24mm equivalent focal length when mounted to your APS-C-format E-mount camera, this lens will allow photographers to capture wide landscapes and work in tight spaces with ease. With its pancake design, the lens only extends 0.9" from the mount, resulting in a compact and lightweight camera system. This lens is compatible with optical wide-angle and fisheye conversion lenses, which, when used, will convert this lens into an 18mm or 15mm lens, respectively.
The Sony E16mm f2.8 Lens is a light, low-profile pancake lens that fits comfortably on the front of both the Sony NEX-3 and NEX-5 cameras, maintaining the slimline look and slipping easily into your pocket. Great for everyday shooting, this 16mm lens contains high-quality optics including a 7-blade circular aperture for beautiful defocus effects and an aspheric surface for excellent contrast and sharpness. The lens features direct Manual Focus with a non-rotating focus ring during Auto Focus, ideal for precise, comfortable adjustments. The Sony 16mm f2.8 Lens is compatible with the optional VCL-ECU1 ultra-wide converter and optional VCL-ECF1.
Pairing the lens with a stabilized body will smooth handheld video and makes it easier to snap handheld shots at longer exposure times
