Manufacturer description #1

The wide coverage of the 28mm and 35mm wide-angle lenses adapts them perfectly for use in a restricted space; 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.

Manufacturer description #2

This wide angle lens provides an angle of view almost identical with the field of view of the human eye. It therefore covers the field equivalent to what you see with your naked eye. Because it produces minimum distortion of the image, it is often used in place of the normal lens.
