【Voltage Compatibility】
When using electrical appliances, please note that they are designed for Japanese voltage specifications (90-110V), so if you use them with a different voltage, it may cause a malfunction.
【Plug Type】
Our products use Japanese plug types (A or B type).
Please use a conversion adapter if necessary.
【Important Note on Transformers and Adapters】
A transformer adjusts voltage to match your device’s requirements.
A conversion adapter only changes the plug shape and does not adjust voltage.
Using only a conversion adapter without a transformer may result in damage to the product.
【Liability】
We are not responsible for malfunctions or damages caused by improper use, such as operating the product without a transformer.

Rotary shift mechanism (±6mm/360° rotation): Equipped with a ±6mm shift range and a 360° rotation structure. Clicks every 45° make it easy to grasp the rotation position, allowing for intuitive horizontal and vertical alignment of buildings and products.
Lightweight and compact design: Weighing approximately 169g and with a diameter of 63mm, its lightweight body makes it extremely portable. From everyday snapshots to professional photography, it's easy to carry to the field and is useful in a wide range of situations.
Ideal for panoramic and architectural photography: By using the shift function to minimize parallax while stitching images together, it efficiently creates seamless panoramas and architectural photographs. High-precision expression is possible from the moment of shooting.
Accurate reproduction for product, interior, and real estate photography: Naturally adjusts perspective and shape, making it ideal for e-commerce listings, catalogs, and floor plan/facility documentation. Furthermore, when shooting through glass such as shop windows or observation decks, unwanted reflections are removed from the frame using the shift function, resulting in clear images.
Distortion and chromatic aberration are suppressed, making it suitable for a wide range of shooting situations: High refractive index + ED lenses correct distortion and chromatic aberration. Although it is an APS-C design, it can be with full-frame cameras when there is no shift. *Peripheral image quality may vary depending on the camera model and conditions.
The "AstrHori 18mm F5.6 Shift" is a wide-angle shift lens compatible with APS-C sensors. Its rotary shift mechanism (±6mm/360° rotation, 45° click) allows for natural perspective rendering while adjusting horizontal and vertical lines within the composition. It boasts a lightweight and compact design, weighing approximately 169g and measuring 63mm in diameter. The lens configuration, combining high refractive index and ED lenses, suppresses distortion and chromatic aberration, resulting in clear and sharp images even at the edges. It excels in a wide range of applications, from everyday snapshots to practical photography. Easily achieve the "perfect shot" you intend, whether for creating seamless wide-angle images in panoramic stitching, adjusting perspective to accurately showcase shapes in product photography, maintaining straight lines in limited spaces during interior and real estate photography, or avoiding reflections through glass in shop windows and observation decks.
