Meike MK-12mm F2.8 groothoek vast brandpunt voor Micro Four Thirds

Expansive landscapes, tight architectural interiors, and environmental portraits on Micro Four Thirds cameras often suffer from a lack of truly wide perspectives. The Meike MK-12mm F2.8 solves this with a dramatic 99-degree angle of view, equivalent to 24mm on full frame, delivering sharp, distortion-controlled images in a compact all-metal body.

Who is it for

This lens is ideal for enthusiasts and professionals using Micro Four Thirds bodies who specialize in landscape, architecture, astrophotography, street, and environmental portraiture. Its manual focus design appeals to those who prefer tactile control and deliberate composition, while the bright f/2.8 aperture suits low-light shooting and creative depth-of-field control. Videographers will also appreciate the smooth, precise focus ring and the wide angle for establishing shots.
