Natural Human Field of Vision
45mm is the new gold standard when it comes to field of view, providing the 53 degree angle that most naturally fits the human field of vision. The Samyang AF 45mm F1.8 FE has been designed to provide the most suitable angle of view to imitate the natural human field of vision (53 degrees), and its design sets a new standard in lens craftsmanship.

Achieve beautiful blurry backgrounds with a bright F1.8 aperture
The bright aperture of the F1.8 allows many different expressions of photographic depth. A shallow depth of field provides the beautiful blurry background that highlights a subject and emphasizes its liveliness, while also providing a range of perspectives when portraying a variety of subjects like babies, pets, and food.
