Brightness and background contrast

The fixed f/2.8 aperture makes it easier to take photographs in low light without the exposure changing as you zoom. The combination of a telephoto perspective and a wide aperture softly blurs the background and clearly isolates the subject from its surroundings. Perspective compression gives product shots a calm and controlled look.

Sharpness right up to the edges of the image

The lens features FLD, SLD and aspherical lens elements, which deliver high contrast from the centre right to the edges of the image. The HLA linear motor focuses quickly and smoothly in both stills and video.

For videographers’ needs

Focus shift has been minimised, so the composition remains unchanged when shifting focus whilst recording. The simplified layout of the controls makes the lens straightforward to use in day-to-day work.
