SUMMARY
Thypoch has released the Eureka 28mm f/2.8, a manual focus wide-angle pancake lens inspired by 1950s optics. This ultra-slim lens, protruding only one inch from the camera body, is designed for portability and everyday use, particularly for street photography. Constructed from brass for a tactile feel and developing a unique patina over time, it aims to balance vintage charm with modern optical performance, featuring an f/2.8 aperture and a minimum focusing distance of 15.7 inches. The lens includes an aspherical element and HRI elements for sharp images with low distortion and natural color rendering, making it suitable for various shooting conditions.
