Wide-to-short telephoto zoom is designed for full-frame L-mount mirrorless cameras, however can also be used with APS-C models where it provides a 30-90mm equivalent focal length range.

Two aspherical elements and one ultra high refractive index (UHR) element, help to minimize distortions and spherical aberrations throughout the zoom range in order to maintain edge-to-edge sharpness and illumination.

Three extra-low dispersion elements greatly reduce chromatic aberrations and color fringing in order to produce a high degree of clarity and color accuracy.

Stepping AF motor delivers quick and quiet focusing performance that benefits both photo and video applications.

Maximum magnification of 0.43x and a minimum focusing distance of 5.9" benefits working with close-up subjects.

AF/MF switch permits quick changing between focusing modes.

Splash, dust, and freezeproof design benefits working in inclement weather conditions down to 14°F.

Fluorine coating has been applied to the front element to prevent dirt and oils from sticking to lens.

Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.
