Meike 25 mm f/0,95 APS-C at a glance

The Meike 25 mm f/0,95 APS-C is a manual-focus 25 mm prime for APS-C mirrorless cameras. Its f/0.95 aperture leaves room to work in poor light and to separate the subject from the background.

Optics and rendering

The optical design uses 11 elements in 9 groups, with a 13-blade diaphragm that keeps out-of-focus highlights round. The aperture runs from f/0.95 to f/16, and the minimum focusing distance is 0.25 m.

Handling and build

Focus and aperture are set by hand; the lens has no electronic contacts, so the camera must be set to release without a lens. The filter thread is 62 mm and it weighs about 600 g.
