Product details

Capture sharp, shake-free images. The lens's integrated optical SteadyShot image stabilization ensures crisp, shake-free photos and videos during handheld shooting. Instead of a standard polygonal aperture, this lens features a circular aperture with seven blades for a natural, soft bokeh. Aspherical lens elements minimize distortion, while ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements ensure outstanding contrast, resolution, and color depth. Internal focusing means the lens cylinder does not move, allowing for a more compact design, faster autofocus response, and shorter minimum focusing distances.

Rank 5 out of 17Stiftung WarentestReleaseMarch 2016

Das Objektiv kann sich durch zahlreiche positive Aspekte auszeichnen und wird am Ende völlig zu Recht mit einer guten Gesamtwertung belohnt. Die Bildqualität gibt kaum Gründe für Kritik und kann sich im Gegenteil durch seine kaum auszumachende Verzeichnung und die sehr gute Helligkeitsverteilung auszeichnen...

Das sehr gut verarbeitete Objektiv schießt gute Fotos und ist dabei sehr gut ausgestattet. Videos gelingen mit ihr in exzellenter Form und Qualität, sodass hier Filmer besonderen Spaß haben dürften.
