Fast and efficient
With an f/4.9 aperture, the lens captures a lot of light.That means shorter exposures, less noise and more detail in your photos.Whether you are photographing star fields or animals, your images remain clear and vivid.
Flat image without additional accessories
The Petzval design uses four lenses that correct the image.The result is a flat field of view of 48 mm.You don't need a separate corrector and your photos stay sharp from edge to edge.

Easy focusing
The helical focuser lets you focus quietly by turning the ring.Even with a heavier camera, everything remains stable.The built-in Bahtinov mask helps you focus perfectly and clicks easily into the objective hood.
