Recommended Applications

* Recommendations are based only on the features necessary to perform the application successfully and do not take into account the relative image quality of different lenses

General use

A basic kit for non-specific photography should cover between 28-300mm

Landscapes

Wide expanses and panoramas can be captured with this focal length. For this application aperture settings will usually vary from f5.6 and smaller and cameras will usually be tripod mounted.

Interiors

Wide angle lenses are a must to capture the look of a room when working in confined spaces. This lens’s fast aperture allows you to capture as much natural light as possible and the camera will usually be tripod mounted to use slower shutter speeds.

Technologies

ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass

ED glass dramatically improves chromatic aberration at telephoto ranges, and provides superior contrast across the entire image, even at large aperture settings.

Aspherical lens

Aspherical lenses minimize spherical aberration in all types of lenses, including large-aperture lenses. Aspherical lenses maintain high contrast in images taken with the aperture wide open, and effectively suppress image distortion.
