Optical Image Stabilisation

The lens also uses a new 4 EV optical stabiliser, which effectively reduces blur in the resulting images even when using zoom. There is no need for a tripod in many situations thanks to the excellent stabilization and users can shoot with longer exposure times without any negative impact on the sharpness of the output.

Quiet, fast and precise focusing

The breakthrough Nano USM drive type with smooth and silent operation ensures very fast focusing and perfect tracking of subjects, and therefore perfect capture of any action. With a versatile focal length range, the lens is ideal for creating portraits and capturing dynamic situations - in the form of photos or videos.

Excellent image quality

Thanks to the circular aperture with 9 blades, you can separate your subject from its surroundings and create a beautiful out-of-focus background. Special integrated ultra-low dispersion (UD) lens elements allow you to suppress chromatic aberration while maintaining high resolution and capture high quality images throughout the entire magnification range.

Keep track with the built-in lens display

The innovative information display at the top of the lens displays the most important information clearly even in low-light conditions. This is extremely useful when shooting video using live preview, as you ensure stable footage while being able to control the focus distance as well as depth of field by selecting the aperture.
