The Rokinon 8mm f/2.8 UMC Fish-Eye II lens is the second generation of this extreme angle of view optic for mirrorless cameras. Popular for special effects use where exaggerated perspective or extreme depth of field is desired, it is often utilized to produce panoramas and 360 virtual tours. It offers a 12mm focal length equivalency in the 35mm format with a 180 Degree angle of view on Sony E-Mount (NEX) APS-C Cameras and a minimum focus distance of 1'. All lens surfaces of Its 11 glass elements utilize Ultra Multi Coating (UMC) while two aspherical and three ED elements help to minimize aberrations and create clear, high contrast and color-accurate images. The built-in petal-shaped lens hood helps to deflect stray light and protects the front element.
