An ultrafast wide-angle prime designed for use with APS-C-format Nikon Z-mount mirrorless cameras, the white Sniper 16mm f/1.2 Autofocus Lens from Sirui delivers speedy performance with eye-tracking autofocus as well as a 24mm full-frame equivalence. Smooth focusing adjustments can be made with the 360-degree focusing ring on the lens barrel. A 13-bladed diaphragm helps create smooth and stunning bokeh.

Hello.
Will this lens work with my Sony a 6600 for astrophotography?
Thank you.😊
The Sirui Sniper 16mm f/1.2 Autofocus Lens (Sony E, Black) will be an excellent lens for astrophotography with the Sony A6600 mirrorless camera.

Is this fixed aperture or not? I don't see an aperture ring, and other sites say it is fixed. Your specs show f1.2 to f16.
The Sirui Sniper 16mm f/1.2 Autofocus Lens (FUJIFILM X, Black), like most prime lenses, does not change the f-stop, as it does not zoom. But it has the F/stop range of f/1.2 to f/16. It will stay set to whichever f-stop you set it to depending on the mode you are shooting in.

Can this lens used on a full-frame camera?
The Sirui Sniper 16mm f/1.2 Autofocus Lens on a full-frame camera will likely cause vignetting and distortion.

Has anyone used this with a Nikon z6ii and clarify
Has anyone used this with a Nikon z6ii and clarify why the system does not recommend it for the camera? Seeing it is a Z mount and wondering what the issue may be. Thanks!
The Sirui Sniper 16mm f/1.2 Autofocus Lens (Nikon Z, Black) is not recommended for the Nikon Z6II is because it is designed for the APS-C sensor. The Nikon Z6II is a full frame sensor camera.
