The lens has been designed with focus on shooting starscapes. It achieves high optical performance with thorough correction of sagittal coma flare, specialised functions to support starry landscape photography, and high-speed AF with HLA (High-response Linear Actuator) linear mot
The 14mm f/1.4 Art lens is constructed with 19 elements in 15 groups, including one SLD glass element, three FLD glass elements, and four aspherical lens elements. This allows for advanced aberration correction and a high degree of precision in the lens construction. In particular, sagittal coma flare, which distorts the shape of stars, has been carefully corrected, and even at the widest aperture, the lens delivers high image reproducibility right to the periphery of the image. Ghosting and flare are also thoroughly addressed through both optical design and coatings.
Optimised for starscapes, which require extremely high performance, this lens delivers images that exceed expectations in any scene, including landscapes, architecture snapshots, portraits, and indoor photography.
