SINGLE FOCAL LENGTH
A wide angle of view and outstanding depth of field make this pancake type wide-
angle lens a good choice for both snapshots and landscapes. Rendering high-
contrast images across the entire frame and correcting distortion, this super-thin
lens is especially ideal for capturing subjects that are primarily linear, such as
buildings with a number of straight lines. Its simple lens construction - 6 elements
in 5 groups, including 3 glass aspherical lenses – allows both high performance and
an astonishingly compact size.

With its fully open brightness, this lens is ideal for nightscapes. It lets in a large amount of light,
so you can raise the shutter speed without increasing the ISO sensitivity. This wide-angle lens also
suppresses hand-shake and noise, so all your shots are crisp, clear and beautiful.
Today, I'm visiting an old-time country stable. Thankfully this small lens sees everything,
from the horse carriage in the corner to the thick wooden beams in the ceiling, all in a single frame.
I'm able to capture the nostalgic air of a place time forgot
with this slim, wide-angle 14mm pancake lens (35mm camera equivalent: 28mm).

For the lens distortion compensation available, the horizontal axis of
MTF is the distance from the center, which is compensated accordingly.
