high-speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and powerful, super-quiet

glass element combine to further reduce ghosting and flare for even greater

Three ED (Extra-low Dispersion) elements control
chromatic aberrations while enhancing color, sharpness and contrast, even at the
widest aperture settings
