A medium-focus, manual, autofocusing telephoto lens provides a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 157mm and gives images a soft bokeh (or out of focus) background effect. Two Extra-low dispersion elements enhance quality by correcting chromatic aberration, while ghostless coating prevents refraction on the lens' inner surface. The result is a sharper image with higher contrast.
Added is an Inner Focusing (IF) mechanism to improve speed and reduce lens extension. Photographers, in response, can get a closer minimum focus distance.
Key Features
- Medium-format, manual and autofocusing telephoto lens with a 35mm-equivalent focal length of 157mm.
- Maximum aperture of f/4 can be stopped down to f/32 via the aperture ring in manual mode. Alternatively, full automatic diaphragm control is available.
- Provides a soft out-of-focus (bokeh) effect.
- Features two extra-low dispersion (ED) glass elements to correct for chromatic aberration, and a ghostless coating to effectively eliminate reflections on the inner surface of the lens, in order to provide sharp images with high contrast.
- Internal focusing system improves focusing speed and minimizes lens extension, allowing for a closer minimum focus distance.
- Supplied lens hood blocks stray light in order to prevent lens flare. Also offers some additional protection against impact for the front element, should you get a bit too close to your subject.
