I was browsing photozone.de and couldn't find any full-frame
rectilinear 12mm lens. The widest was 14mm. Why is that the
case?

In the APS-C world there is the Sigma 8-16, which has an
equivalent FF focal length of 12mm. A bit strange that for APS-C
there are wider rectilinear lenses than for FF. -- Alfred Molon

Sandman:
Well, you've got the Nikkor 13mm f/5.6


If you find one, prepare to pay $10K for one in good shape.


Yes and then try to find a modern camera where the mirror can be
locked into the up position without returning after the exposure.
Otherwise, ker-smash!


Nope.


"Nope" eh? Nope what?
