Defining compositional freedom the 18-270mm Di-II VC's incredible 15x zoom range provides a 35mm picture angle equivalency of 28mm to 419mm, with image fidelity assured by advanced optical design featuring LD glass and aspherical optics, working in concert to render crisp, colorful and faithful images.
Di-II lenses are performance-engineered expressly for digital SLR cameras with image sensors commonly referred to as APS-C, measuring approximately 24mm x 16mm.
Recommended for APS-C photographers who…
- Demand state-of-the-art-one zoom versatility and image quality.
- Need even more subject magnification--expanding sports, nature and wildlife picture opportunities.
- Appreciate the mobility of handheld shooting, but reject the image blur that it often introduces.
- Want fewer lens changes, reducing instances of exposing the DSLR sensor to image-degrading dust, or missing the shot.
- Want image quality far exceeding typical kit lens capabilities.
