SEL11F18 11mm F1.8 APS-C Lens

The Sony SEL11F18 is an 11mm F1.8 APS-C prime lens designed for both stills and movies. Its 11mm focal length delivers a dynamic ultra-wide view equivalent to 16.5mm on a full-frame camera. The large F1.8 maximum aperture helps create deep, expressive bokeh while supporting shooting in a wide range of situations. At just 181g, this lens pairs perfectly with compact APS-C camera bodies.

A minimum focus distance of 0.12m and maximum magnification of 0.2x let you move close to your subject while keeping the background beautifully defocused. Precisely controlled spherical aberration and a seven-blade circular aperture help create smooth and impressive bokeh.

The ultra-wide 11mm angle of view suits landscapes, architecture, interiors, and vlogging. The compact body measures only 66 x 57.5mm and remains easy to handle during long handheld or grip-mounted shooting sessions.

High Resolution and Fast AF

Three aspherical elements help correct field curvature and deliver high resolution across the image area, including the edges. Three ED glass elements suppress chromatic aberration and colour fringing for superb image quality.

Two linear motors provide fast, precise autofocus and tracking for both stills and movies. The responsive AF helps the camera body reach its full speed potential, even when capturing fast or unpredictable movement.

Built for Creative Movie Shooting

Advanced lens technology reduces unwanted focus breathing and angle-of-view shifts during focusing. This supports smooth, refined movie recording. Linear Response MF gives the focus ring a direct and linear response for precise manual control.

The 11mm view and F1.8 aperture make the lens a strong choice for vlogging and scenes that combine a subject with a sweeping background. The design also supports the use of front filters for added creative flexibility.

An internal focus mechanism keeps the lens length constant during focusing. This helps maintain consistent balance and handling, even when shooting close to the minimum focusing distance. A manual/auto focus switch provides quick control, while the customisable focus hold button gives convenient access to assigned functions such as focus magnification.

The dust- and moisture-resistant design adds extra reliability when shooting outdoors in challenging conditions.
