prime lens In film and photography, a prime lens is a fixed focal length photographic lens (as opposed to a zoom lens), typically with a maximum aperture from f2.8 to f1.2. The term can also mean the primary lens in a combination lens system. Confusion ...

The Leica Q series, Fujifilm X100 series, and Ricoh GR series are popular cameras in this category. This list excludes cameras with removable sensors, such as the Phase One XC.

Cameras with a
