High Lens Aperture

The advantage of this lens is its high aperture of f/2.8 with a 17mm focal length and f/5.0 with a 70mm focal length. That's why it lets you capture clear images and focuses well even in poor lighting conditions. Its minimum focus length of 22cm and maximum aspect ratio of 1:2.8 determines the use of a lens for all types of photos.

Quiet and Fast Autofocus

The quiet and fast autofocus is provided by an HSM engine that works on the principle of ultrasonic waves. If you want to get maximum control over the captured scene, you can easily switch the autofocus to manual. Additionally, the lens includes advanced anti-reflection coating so the resulting photos have minimal incidence of colour defects and interfering reflections. 

Optical Stabilisation

With a wide range of focus points, you can not only capture wide-angle images of nature and architecture, but also amazing detailed pictures and portraits. The lens is equipped with an effective optical image stabiliser to help you capture perfectly sharp images without a tripod even in dim lighting conditions.
