The XCD 30mm is a wide angle lens for the X1D. Its focal length provides a 24mm equivalent field of view, making it the perfect landscape, reportage and travel lens. The lens boasts extremely high performance and a compact build, providing a 71º horizontal angle of view. A unique feature of this lens is that it will keep its amazing performance even when shooting at close distances.
