A new level of optical performance with superior imaging power. Taking advantage of the dramatically improved lens design freedom afforded by the large-aperture mount, this lens achieves a new level of optical performance. With high resolution, beautiful bokeh, minimal axial chromatic aberration, and excellent point image reproduction, it achieves image quality that sets it apart from previous f/1.8 lenses. In particular, resolution is enhanced by the use of two ED lens elements and a multi-focus system that thoroughly suppresses axial chromatic aberration, delivering high imaging performance regardless of the shooting distance, from close up to infinity. When shooting distant landscapes, it renders sharp details, while when shooting close-up portraits, the sharp depiction of the focal plane and the blurred background combine to make the subject stand out strikingly. It also features Nano Crystal Coat to suppress ghosting and flare. The high-resolution multi-focus system, designed for the high-pixel era, effectively corrects axial chromatic aberration across the entire focusing range, from close up to infinity. It achieves high resolution compatible with high-pixel digital cameras at all shooting distances. Natural bokeh: The natural, soft, and beautiful bokeh you expect from a large-aperture lens is achieved. Both foreground and background bokeh are well-controlled and have consistent shapes. Especially when photographing portraits, the shallow depth of field achieved by the f/1.8 aperture, combined with the sharp depiction of pinpoint-focused areas like the eyes, makes the subject stand out strikingly.
