Kowa Fixed Focal Length Lenses Series

The 8.5mm focal length model (KOWA PROMINAR 8.5mm F2.8) achieves a realistic and large-scale imaging expression with a distortion value of only 0.12% even though it offers a diagonal angle of view of 106°.

[Note] Some lenses of the micro four thirds system standard may not be mounted to the camera.

The model with a wide angle of view and a 12mm focal length (KOWA PROMINAR 12mm F1.8) has a bright F1.8 aperture, and its distortion value has also been reduced to 0.59%.

[Note] Some lenses of the micro four thirds system standard may not be mounted to the camera.

The model with a 25mm standard focal length (KOWA PROMINAR 25mm F1.8) suited for use in a variety of shooting environments has a bright F1.8 aperture, and provides a sharp image.

[Note] Some lenses of the micro four thirds system standard may not be mounted to the camera.

Kowa’s XD Lenses (extra-low dispersion glass), when combined with a concave lens possessing special dispersion properties, reduces a very high percentage of chromatic aberration.

A dual Link Iris system makes it possible to choose silent or click aperture adjustment. Aperture settings can be changed in an instant to suit the photographic subject.

The construction of the aperture blades with 9 elements makes it possible that the diaphragm shows a circle at all f-stops, creating a more natural impression.

All internal parts are protected by a solid and rigid aluminium housing.
The body feels reassuringly well made with good balance and weightiness in the hand and when attached to a camera body.

The floating mechanism system is effective in preventing malfunction and increasing the life of the lens. High optical performance was achieved in all photographic subject distances.
