26mm f/8 L-Mount
Why we recommend this

Its fixed f/8 aperture and 57g weight make it the world's slimmest full-frame lens, functioning as a permanent body cap. The manual focus control and one Ultra Extra-low Dispersion element provide surprising optical quality for its minimalist profile. This lens is best for landscape and travel photographers who prioritize an ultra-compact kit over shallow depth of field or low-light performance.
