From the editor

Although this lens is available with mirrorless camera mounts, optically it is based on a formula calculated for SLR cameras. We decided to record this lens separately in our database, however, for the manufacturer description, please refer to the page dedicated to the optically identical SLR version.

The only difference between this lens and the SLR version is that package includes a round screw-type lens hood.
