Made for the artistic and demanding photographer
When designing the NiSi 9mm F2.8 ultra-wide angle, NiSi listened very rigorously to the desires and enter of dozens {of professional} photographers who work with NiSi filters on their (wide-angle) lenses virtually on daily basis. For instance, the optical design of this APS-C NiSi 9mm lens is totally tailor-made to the sensor within the mirrorless camera, in order that picture sharpness stays excessive from the centre to the sides of the picture. Using high-quality optical glass, 4 ED lens components and a double aspherical factor, not solely guarantee excessive element sharpness, but additionally tremendously cut back chromatic aberration and distortion. The lens can also be well-corrected towards distortion of vibrant factors within the picture (coma), making it supreme for astrophotography. NiSi’s in-house developed SA+ anti-reflection coating, protecting exhausting coating, steel housing and steel bayonet guarantee profitable photographs in all kinds of circumstances.

Designed for good guide focusing
With the NiSi 9mm F2.8 ultra-wide angle, further consideration has been paid to the guide focusing mechanism. The focusing journey is huge and turns absolutely and easily, permitting setting the right distance with nice accuracy. For longer distances, the impact is just not readily obvious, however on the shortest focusing distance of simply 20 centimetres, it actually issues. At this brief distance, a pleasant blurred background may be created at F/2.8 full aperture. In addition to a transparent distance scale on the lens, there’s additionally a really sensible depth-of-field management scale. This permits fast work with zone focusing or to set the precise distance for optimum outcomes.
67mm filter thread to be used of NiSi round and sq. filters
