Description

Irix 15mm f/2.4

Creative Tool

The most important feature of the Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens is its focal length of 15 mm. This very short value allows you to record extremely wide frames, which is invaluable in landscape, interior, or architecture photography. This lens provides a wide field of view while maintaining proper perspective. This makes objects in the foreground appear larger and the background appear farther away. This is a great tool for photographers who want to experiment with perspective and create unique shots. What’s more, this lens is also great for Astrophotography, so you can capture beautiful nightscapes.

Bright f/2.4 aperture

Another advantage of the Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens is its f/2.4 aperture. This small aperture value allows you to capture images even in low light conditions. The open aperture allows more light to be transmitted, which in turn translates into bright and sharp images in all lighting conditions. It’s ideal for photographers working at night, indoors, or in other challenging lighting conditions.

Optics that guarantee sharp images

The design of the Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens is another noteworthy aspect. The whole lens has been designed with the highest image quality in mind. The optics consist of 15 elements arranged in 11 groups, including two aspherical elements and two elements made of low-dispersion glass. This design minimizes optical aberrations such as distortion and vignetting, resulting in high-resolution images with excellent sharpness and color fidelity. In addition, the lens is equipped with modern anti-reflective coatings that effectively reduce flare and flare effects, ensuring even higher image quality.

A Build You Can Trust

The Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens is also distinguished by its durability and solidity. It was created for difficult working conditions. It is resistant to dust, moisture, and changing weather conditions – thanks to this, you can successfully use it in any situation without fear of damage.

Additional Features

The “Click / Declick” switch – is a feature now available on Irix photographic lenses for the Sony system. Allows you to choose

between gradual and smooth iris ring operation.

Focus Lock – allows you to lock the focus ring in a specific position, which is extremely beneficial when you want to keep a specific focus plane i.e. in astrophotography, or when using the hyperfocal scale.

95mm front filter thread – allows you to use screw-in filters such as Irix Edge UV & Protector, Irix Edge Circular Polarizer, Irix Edge ND, and Irix Edge Light Pollution filter and others.

Compatible with Irix Edge IFH-100 Filter Holder – allows you to expand your creativity thanks to Gradual Neutral Density filters with different gradients: SoftHard and Reverse

Dragonfly version

The Irix 15mm lens is also characterized by a solid construction (Dragonfly finish version). The body is made of magnesium aluminum alloy combined with a high-quality composite. This ensures durability and resistance to weather conditions with relatively low weight. Dust and moisture resistance mean you can confidently use this lens outdoors, even in harsh atmospheric conditions.

Compatible with filters

What makes the Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens unique is the possibility of using both classic 95mm screw-on filters, as well as square filters, thanks to the Irix Edge IFH-100 holder!
Every landscape photographer uses filters – they allow a creative approach to photography, which makes them extremely practical. The filters that you can use with the Irix 15mm f/2.4 lens are all 95mm filters, such as the Irix Edge:
UV & Protector – protects your lens against damage
Circular Polarizer – cuts off unwanted reflections and increase the clarity of the photo
Neutral Density – decrease the amount of light reaching the camera sensor, thus allows, for example, creatively to blurs the motion in your photographs.
Light Pollution – cuts off the light of cities, making your night photos full of detail without a yellowish haze

Irix Edge IFH-100 Filter Holder allows you to expand your camera’s capabilities thanks to Gradual Neutral Density filters with different gradients: SoftHard and Reverse. By cutting off part of the light from the brightest part of the image, you can shoot even in the most difficult lighting conditions.
