SLR Magic 12mm T/1.6 Hyperprime Cine Lens Review
Handling and features
This manual focus wide angle lens for Micro Four Thirds system cameras provides an angle of view equivalent to a 24mm lens on a 35mm format camera and sports a bright T/1.6 maximum aperture. The aperture is expressed in T-stops rather than F-stops as this takes into account light transmission losses through the lens, which is useful for video work. The lens costs around £400, which seems quite reasonable for a lens sporting such a bright maximum aperture. In this review we'll take a look at how it performs.
