Brightin Star AF 11mm f/2.8 II 50mm
Bringing a 122.5° field of view and 2:1 macro magnification, this 12mm f/2.8 full-frame lens delivers wide-angle close-ups at a 9.4-inch minimum distance. A rear filter slot accepts the included natural night filter to cut light pollution for cleaner astrophotography results. It suits landscape and macro shooters prioritizing dramatic, distortion-controlled perspectives, rather than wildlife or sports requiring autofocus.
