24 MM LENSES
A super-slim, highly portable ‘pancake’ lens that’s ideal for travel and street photography. The 39.5 mm equivalent focal length gives you a slightly wider than human-eye perspective and its wide aperture lets you isolate your subject against soft, out-of-focus backgrounds - even in low light.

NUMBER OF DIAPHRAGM BLADES
The more blades a diaphragm has, the more circular the shape of the aperture as it closes. The shape of the blades also determines circular aperture. The more circular the aperture, the more circular the out-of-focus details in the image (bokeh) will be. |
