This adaptable lens provides exposure for a wide range of photography subjects which includes, but by no way limited to, portraits, landscapes, nature and close-ups.
Ideal for everyday photography, the low-profile 16mm f/2.8 lens keeps the bulk down, allowing you to easily carry the camera in a purse, pants pocket, or coat.

Although if you want to hold the camera bulk down, keep in mind that there's no zoom and the picture quality is not as good as the other lenses.
