ATHENA 18mm T2.2 レンズ (Canon RF)

I shoot interviews in dim church interiors all the time, and the T2.2 aperture lets me keep ISO down while still catching the whole scene from across the room. The 18mm focus ring is buttery smooth for pulling focus manually, and it’s small enough to gimbal-mount without rebalancing.

I was worried an ultra-wide this fast would be bulky, but it's surprisingly compact on my Canon RF body. The T2.2 aperture lets me shoot interiors with just practical lights, and the 18mm field of view really helps in tight spaces.

Pulling focus is remarkably smooth right out of the box, and the 18mm focal length gives interiors a natural sense of depth. It’s sharp even wide open at T2.2, which is a huge help when shooting handheld in available light.
