AstrHori announced the new AF 27mm f2.8 STM interchangeable lens on Friday, December 6, 2024. The AstrHori AF 27mm F2.8 STM is a prime lens for Nikon Z mount compatible with APS-C sensors.
It features a retro design and a lightweight, compact metal body weighing 165g, making it easy to use and durable. The classic style exterior makes it more enjoyable to take photos in your daily life or when traveling. It also has a focal length of 27mm (equivalent to 40.5mm in 35mm format), making it useful in a variety of scenes, including street snaps and landscape photography. It is equipped with an STM (stepping motor), allowing for quiet and smooth autofocus. It supports not only normal photography, but also eye AF and video recording, allowing you to capture important moments with confidence.
With a minimum shooting distance of 0.3m, it is possible to take close-up shots that cut out a large part of the subject. It is suitable for shooting still objects such as small items and flowers, as well as portraits that boldly cut out the model’s expression. In addition, with a bright aperture value of F2.8, it suppresses noise even in dark places such as indoors or at night, and reduces subject blur and camera shake.
The base of the lens also has a USB port, so you can connect it to a PC and upgrade the firmware.
