At the same price, a bundle is available that includes a Heliopan multi-coated UV filter and a Flashpoint CapKeeper.
The 32mm focal length is the equivalent of a normal 50mm lens on a full-frame 35mm camera. The lightweight autofocusing prime is optimized for APS-C sensors with an aperture range of f1.8 to f22, focusing as close as 1.21 feet and using a 52mm filter.
