Full frame sized imageLenses that create APS-C sized image are designed for digital only. They cannot be used on cameras that have image sensor larger than the APS-C format. These lenses are not suitable for film cameras either. Ultrasonic AFLenses with ultrasonic focusing mechanism tend to be quiter and faster than traditionally focusing lenses. No stepping motor AFLenses with stepping motor focusing mechanism are better for contrast based focusing, and are quiter and faster than traditionally focusing lenses. One or more Low Dispersion lens element is usedLow Dispersion lens elements help to reduce chromatic aberration. Not stabilizedImage stabilization helps to reduce blur caused by hand shake, especially at high focal length or in low light situations. Image stabilization can give 1 to 3 stop advantage over none stabilized lens, based on the reciprocal rule. Internal FocusingInternally focusing lenses don't change their size while setting focus. |

Ideal mid-range zoom lens for architecture and portraiture, with fast maximum aperture. ED-glass element for superior optical performance, even at maximum aperture. Internal Focusing (iF) design for smoother focusing. Exclusive Silent Wave Motor for ultra-high-speed autofocusing with exceptional accuracy and super-quiet opertaion. M/A mode enables instant switching to manual focus even during AF operation.
