Prime Lenses

Prime lenses have a single fixed focal length. With fewer elements than zooms, they are usually smaller, lighter and offer wider maximum apertures, which suits low light and shallow depth of field.

Our database has 1,703 lenses in this category from 50 brands across 21 mounts, spanning 5.2mm to 1200mm with a fastest aperture of f/0.95.
