Manufacturer description
The wide coverage of the 28 and 35mm wide-angle lenses adapts them perfectly for use in a restricted apace; also for injecting a dynamic effect into landscape photography. They offer an extensive depth of field and an exaggerated perspective effect, and are designed to bring out these characteristic qualities with the greatest impact for superior overall results. Lightweight and ideal for snap-shooting, photographic work where pan-focus effect is desired, as well as for general photography.
