Blending a compact form factor with a bright optical design, the 35mm f/1.2 Mark II Lens from 7Artisans is a classic prime well-suited for every day, available light photography. This stylish black portrait-length prime is designed for APS-C-format Sony E-mount mirrorless cameras and offers a 52.5mm equivalent focal length, and the fast f/1.2 maximum aperture suits working in low-light conditions and offers increased control over depth of field for working with selective focus techniques. The manual focus design permits working with subjects as close as 11' away, and its rounded 10-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality, an ideal combination for portraiture.

Featuring a newly redesigned optical formula for increased sharpness, the lens optics are complemented by a multi-layer coating, which serves to minimize surface reflections, flare, and ghosting for greater contrast and color accuracy in various lighting conditions.
