The minimum focusing distance of just 0.18m allows for impressive close-up shots, making it versatile for capturing dramatic perspectives. <\/p>\n<p>One thing to note is that the large front element captures light from all directions, leading to significant flaring and a lower contrast look. The lens is sharp in the center but softer toward the edges, even when stopped down to F8, making it less ideal for edge-to-edge precision. Despite these quirks, the MIR-20M is a favorite among Soviet lenses for its unique look and creative potential.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"subtitolo-noleggio\">Specifications<\/div>\n<table class=\"table-noleggio-2-colonne-genrale\">\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Weight<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">465 g<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Focal length<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">20mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Mount<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">PL<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Maximum Aperture<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">F3.5<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Aperture<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">F 3.5 &#8211; 16<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Min focusing distance<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">0,18 m<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Angle of view (Full Frame)<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">96\u00b0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Focus throw<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">Approx. 220\u00b0<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Aperture blades<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">6<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2a-noleggio\">Sensor coverage<\/td>\n<td class=\"table-colonna-2b-noleggio\">24\u00d736 mm<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/tbody>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ironglass MIR-20M 20mm F3.5 PL-mount The MIR-20 20mm, produced in the Soviet era from the 1960s through the 1980s, is a rare and highly sought-after wide-angle lens, celebrated for its unique character and cinematic look.
