Excellent Image Performance: The hybrid aspherical lens effectively corrects various aberrations, delivering sharp, high-contrast image quality from the minimum focal length to infinity, and excellent image quality even at the edges of the frame, even at maximum aperture. In addition, the ghost-less coating minimizes the occurrence of flare and ghosting that can affect image quality, allowing for crystal-clear images even in harsh conditions such as backlight.
Bright Aperture: The lens achieves a bright maximum aperture of f/2.4. The viewfinder is easy to see, allowing for fast shutter speeds even in low-light conditions, which is advantageous in reducing camera shake.
Lightweight and Compact Design: The lightweight and compact design, weighing approximately 124g and measuring 45mm in length, makes it easy to carry and allows for agile photography.
Designed specifically for digital SLR cameras, optimized for the characteristics of digital images, it achieves a minimum focusing distance of 0.3m.
