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

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.

Portraits

A focal length of about 50mm is recommended for full to mid length portraits. Depth of field is the most important tool to manipulate and a fast lens will give more scope for creative treatment

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.
