As a compact wide-angle lens for mirrorless Micro Four Thirds cameras, the 12mm f/2.8 Mark II lens from 7artisans Photoelectric is a fully manual lens that is well-suited for landscape, city, and architectural photography that requires a wide field of view. The maximum aperture of f/2.8 facilitates shooting in various lighting conditions and helps keep the lens small and lightweight, making it suitable for handheld shooting.

Manual focusing is complemented by a depth of field and distance scale, allowing for the use of pre-focusing and zone focusing techniques. Additionally, the lens allows for working with subjects that are up to 7.9 feet away.

The wide-angle lens features an expanded field of view that surpasses that of the human eye. It differs from standard lenses due to its shorter focal length. This shorter focal length increases the field of view, making subjects appear smaller and allowing for more to be captured in the photo. Furthermore, the wide-angle lens creates a noticeable effect of spatial depth—objects in the distance appear even further away, giving your images a striking sense of depth.
