This medium-format, manual, autofocusing telephoto lens with a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 118mm features a f/2.8 maximum aperture, which allows for low-light shooting with a somewhat thin depth of field and helps create a natural, out-of-focus background for images.

High-refraction and extra-low dispersion glass reduce chromatic aberration while sharpening performance with greater contrast and increased clarity. Super Multi Coating further enhances both qualities.

An inner focus system lessens lens extension when focusing. As a result, a photographer can get a closer minimum focus distance. A large hood with a PL filter operation window allows for use of a circular polarizing filter when examining images with the viewfinder.

Key Features

• Medium format, manual and autofocusing telephoto lens with a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 118mm.
  
  
• Fairly fast f/2.8 maximum aperture enables effective low-light shooting with pretty shallow depth of field, and helps produce a natural out-of-focus (bokeh) effect for backgrounds. Aperture can be stopped down to f/22 using the aperture ring in manual mode. Alternatively, full automatic diaphragm control is available.
  
  
• High-refraction and extra-low dispersion glass help minimize chromatic aberrations and allow for sharp imaging performance with high contrast and clarity.
  
  
• Super Multi Coating also contributes to high sharpness and contrast.
  
  
• An inner focus system is used to minimize lens extension when focusing, allowing for a closer minimum focus distance.
  
  
• Large hood with a PL filter operation window is included to enable the use of a circular polarizing filter while checking the results through the camera's viewfinder.
