Super Multilayer Coating: Significantly reduces lens flare and ghosting, maintaining rich contrast and color accuracy even when shooting in harsh, backlit conditions.
Robust Construction: Features a durable brass bayonet mount with a rubber seal, making the lens dust and splash resistant for reliable use in the field.

9-Blade Rounded Diaphragm: Produces a soft, creamy bokeh that adds a high-end cinematic quality to your out-of-focus highlights.
