Kase AF 24mm f/3.8 full frame pancake lens for Sony E mount

The Kase AF 24mm f/3.8 full frame pancake lens for Sony E mount is a pancake wide-angle lens for Sony full-frame cameras with an E-mount. It is just 16 millimetres thick and weighs 60 grams, so it adds almost no bulk to your camera. It is easy to bring along on long photo walks and city trips, and always ready for spontaneous everyday shots.

At 24mm you capture landscapes, architecture and street scenes in a wide view while keeping a natural perspective. It is also a versatile focal length for travel, reportage and environmental portraits. You can focus from 30 centimetres, close enough for products, food and details.

The aperture is fixed at f/3.8. This keeps shooting simple and makes the flat pancake design possible. A VCM motor focuses quickly and quietly, for photos and video. Manual focus is not possible: the lens works with autofocus only.

The optical design has 6 elements in 6 groups. A built-in lens cap sits in front of the front element and opens and closes with a small lever, so you don't need a separate front cap. The lens has no filter thread. A USB port lets you update the firmware yourself.
