A bright wide-angle prime, the AF 35mm f/1.8 Lens from Brightin Star is a versatile lens well-suited for street photography, landscapes, portraits, and more. The fast f/1.8 maximum aperture offers increased control over depth of field for working with shallow depth of field techniques and also suits working in difficult lighting conditions. An STM motor affords quiet, quick, and accurate autofocus performance. The optical design incorporates one low dispersion element, two aspherical elements, and two high refractive index elements, which reduce chromatic aberrations and distortion. A rubber seal protects the lens mount from moisture, and a multi-layer coating is also applied to the glass to suppress flare and ghosting for improved contrast and color accuracy when working in strong lighting conditions. Additionally, a USB-C port is integrated into the lens design to permit firmware updates.
