FAQs

Is this lens compatible with autofocus?

No, this is a dedicated manual focus lens. You must adjust the focus ring manually.

Does this lens transfer EXIF data to the camera?

No, because the lens has no electronic contacts, metadata such as aperture and focal length will not be recorded.

Can I use this on a crop-sensor camera?

Yes, it is designed for full-frame but will function on crop-sensor (APS-C) bodies, though the effective focal length will change.

What is the minimum focusing distance?

The minimum focusing distance is 30cm, making it suitable for tight close-ups.

Is the aperture ring de-clicked?

The lens features a click-stop aperture ring, which provides physical feedback when changing settings.

Troubleshooting

Enable the 'Release without lens' or 'Shoot without lens' setting in your camera's custom menu.

Verify focus using focus peaking or magnified view in your electronic viewfinder.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

To use this lens, ensure your mirrorless camera is set to 'Release without lens' mode in the settings menu, as the camera will not detect the lens electronically. Attach the lens by aligning the mount markings and rotating until it clicks. When not in use, always attach the front and rear caps to protect the glass from dust and scratches. Use the included lens hood to prevent flare when shooting in bright outdoor light. Clean the optics only with a microfiber cloth and lens-safe cleaning fluid if necessary. Store in a dry, cool place to prevent internal moisture accumulation.
