Although this fast F1.8 lens weighs only 280 g (9.9 oz.) and measures just 65.6 mm x 73 mm, it offers unparalleled image quality that makes it a wonderful choice for any use, whether photography or filmmaking. It is a full-frame lens, but it also fits APS-C bodies offering a focal length equivalent to 52.5 mm, ideal for portraits and snapshots.
High resolution across the entire image range
An aspherical element is strategically integrated into the advanced design of this lens to prevent optical distortion and achieve high resolution up to the edges of the image. Smooth background defocusing (bokeh) is also available when needed, supported by a 9-blade circular aperture mechanism, which contributes to realistic background defocusing (bokeh).
Reliable autofocus tracking in any situation
Focusing is crucial for the shallow depth of field at the large F1.8 aperture. The silent, fast response and high precision of the linear mechanism of this lens's autofocus drive system ensure accurate focusing not only for still images but also for movies where wobbling is used for detailed, continuous focus control.
Get Closer for Stunning Close-Ups
The minimum focusing distance of 0.22 m (0.73 ft.) and the maximum magnification of 0.24x make this lens useful for close-up shots, as well as for general photography and filmmaking. High optical performance is maintained at close range, providing the quality needed to create stunning images of tabletop subjects, flowers, and more.
Customizable Focus Hold Button
A conveniently positioned focus hold button not only offers easy handling of focus retention, but you can also assign a multitude of other functions to it from a menu accessible from the camera body. Functions that can be assigned to the focus hold button include displaying grid lines to assist with composition, adjusting white balance, and other functions that support efficient and flexible photography.
Easy Switching Between Manual/Auto Focus
The focus mode switch that allows instant switching between automatic and manual focus mode can provide a significant advantage when shooting subjects or in shooting conditions that require detailed, manual focus adjustment.
Natural, Linear Manual Focus Response
Linear response manual focus ensures that the focus ring responds immediately and linearly to fine adjustments during manual focusing. The rotation of the focus ring translates directly into the corresponding focus change, so control is immediate and precise.
Designed for dust and moisture resistance
The dust and moisture-resistant design provides the reliability needed for outdoor use in challenging conditions.
