Product details

The original nano-coating suppresses reflections for significantly better image quality, while the advanced optical design ensures minimal distortion with high contrast and excellent resolution throughout the entire zoom range. Additionally, the autofocus captures subjects about four times faster than the previous model.

The new dust and moisture-resistant design is even more reliable, making it particularly well-suited for outdoor sports and nature photography. With a minimum focusing distance of 1.2 meters, the lens can also be used for portraits or close-ups of flowers.
