Brightin Star, a lens brand that has garnered global attention for its budget-friendly manual lenses, is set to introduce a new ultra-wide-angle prime lens tailored for Sony full-frame mirrorless users.
According to 'Sony Alpha Rumors', a media outlet specializing in camera leaks and rumors, Brightin Star will officially announce the '12mm f/2.8 FE' mount lens in the near future. This new product is designed to natively fit Sony's full-frame E-mount (FE) system, ensuring a perfect fit without the need for any separate adapters.
Why 12mm f/2.8? Typically, ultra-wide-angle lenses around 12mm struggle with distortion control and carry high price tags. However, Brightin Star's upcoming lens maintains a bright f/2.8 aperture while expected to keep its signature high cost-performance. This makes it an excellent alternative for photographers who primarily shoot vast landscapes or astrophotography, such as the Milky Way.
Rumor has it that the lens boasts a minimal size and lightweight design, perfectly balancing the weight when mounted on high-resolution full-frame bodies. The exact release date and pricing are expected to be officially unveiled within the coming days.
■ Editor's Note
"The world of wide-angle photography is vast, but our wallets are thin. If you are a Sony user who wants to capture the wider world but hesitates due to steep lens prices, this 'high-value ultra-wide' pick is well worth keeping an eye on." (Mini, IT/Camera Tech Editor)
