The lens features a quiet, high-speed stepping motor for swift, silent operation, making it suitable for both still and video capture. Its excellent resistance to flare and ghosting makes it ideal for real-world shooting conditions. The lens also boasts a 9-blade rounded diaphragm for creative bokeh effects and a dust- and splash-resistant mount for durability.
