The IRIX Firefly 11mm F/4.0 Canon EF Mount Lens offers high performance with lightweight construction. Perfect for full frame Canon EOS DSLR photographers who want to remain nimble while travelling, without sacrificing image quality. Designed for manual focus use, an anti-slip coating on the focus ring ensures a solid grip & excellent weather sealing ensures you can shoot confidently in any situation.

Delivering ultra-wide angle shots with a 126 degree field of view coverage when mounted on a full fame DSLR body, an easy-to-grip ribbed surface on the focusing ring allowing for quick manual focus adjustments, and the ability to custom calibrate the focus on your lens to ensure the best optical performance regardless of what gear you use.

The 9-blade circular diaphragm brings beautiful bokeh, making your compositions more appealing and providing a 3-dimensional depth to your imagery.

With a Neutrino coating on the front element of the lens, the effect of flare, reflection and ghosting is suppressed, and shooting towards a light source can achieve stunning backlit portraits.

A rear filter slot allows you to use a 30x30mm gelatin filter (not included in this listing) to achieve more creative shots without having to worry about expensive & cumbersome front filter adapting rings & filter holders.

A wonderful addition to your photography kit!

Optics That Guarantee Sharp Images

Creativity, ideas, and the effort that’s put into the final image would be nothing without the right lens. Thanks to many years of experience in optical design, Irix lenses are characterized by their excellent resolution, minimal distortion (3.13%), and almost no vignetting. The Irix 11mm f/4.0 lens consists of 16 elements arranged in 10 groups: 4 refractive elements, 2 ED elements and 3 aspherical elements. The focus distance is only 28cm, which in combination with its f/4.0 f-stop and 9 rounded aperture blades, makes this lens stand out with extremely smooth bokeh from an incredible perspective.

You compose the image – Irix takes care of the rest!

Intelligent Lens Design

The Irix 11mm f/4.0 lens has a module that allows you to control the lens’ iris directly from the camera, thanks to which popular semi-automatic modes (PASM) and data recording in EXIF format are available.

The use of electronics also enable the lens to be equipped with a focus confirmation system – the camera will announce the correct focus setting (either in the form of an icon in the viewfinder or with a sound), every time you set the focus correctly – it’s easy and convenient!

It’s worth noting that Irix lenses have the appropriate correction profiles that are pre-loaded and readable by software (such as Adobe Lightroom and Adobe Photogshop), that will make your shooting experience even more enjoyable.

Additional Features

Infinity click – Enables quick, easy, and precise focusing. During focusing, you’ll feel the moment when your lens hits infinity, which is extremely useful when shooting in difficult lighting conditions (I.e. at night).

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

Rear Gel Filter Slot – Allows the use of neutral gray filters, (a unique feature of the Irix 11mm f/4.0), against the background of competing ultra-wide-angle builds that do not have the option of using filters.

Focus Calibration Window – due to the specifics of focus detection in DSLR cameras (which are based on phase detection), sometimes it may happen that the lens needs synchronization with the camera. Thanks to this special window you can easily calibrate the lens at home using basic tools within 5 minutes. Fast, simple and effective!
