Fast wide-angle fixed focal length lens for full-frame format
The lens is equipped with two FLD (''F'' Low Dispersion) glass elements and three SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass elements. These three efficiently arranged aspherical lenses, including a large-diameter aspherical lens, provide thorough correction of chromatic aberration found especially in wide-angle lenses. This enables high resolution across the entire sensor, while sagittal coma is fully corrected and distortion is reduced just as effectively. Exceptional performance is achieved in street photography as well as when shooting landscapes and night skies.
Dust- and splash-proof construction
The lens is dust- and splash-proof, and together with the water- and oil-repellent coating on the front lens, it ensures exceptional performance even in extremely challenging shooting conditions. Thanks to the HSM (Hyper-Sonic Motor) with updated algorithm, the high-speed autofocus detects any subject movement without delay.
Brass bayonet
The lens is equipped with a solid and precise brass bayonet. The special surface treatment to reinforce strength allows for long-lasting use.
Reflection and ghosting eliminating design
Super multi-layer coating (SML) eliminates reflections and ghosting. This ensures sharp, high-contrast images throughout the Zoom range.
Round aperture
The near-round aperture consists of 9 aperture blades and provides a very pleasing bokeh outside the plane of focus of the image.
