What it does, and why that matters

Portability — 01

A light, compact take on a 35mm equivalent

At around 180g this brings the classic 35mm-equivalent field of view into a small, easy-to-carry package — a natural everyday lens rather than a specialist one.

35mm equivalent field of view, 63.4° angle of view
10 elements in 6 groups, including 2 aspherical elements
Approximately 180g, excluding caps and hood

Autofocus — 02

Stepping motor for fast, quiet focus

An inner-focus stepping motor design keeps autofocus quick and quiet, well suited to street photography and video where a noisy focus motor would be distracting.

Stepping motor autofocus drive
Minimum focus distance 0.22m to infinity
Maximum magnification 0.13x

Handling — 03

Weather-resistant, 9-blade aperture

Sealed against dust and moisture with a 9-blade rounded aperture for smooth out-of-focus rendering, giving this compact lens more capability than its size implies.

Weather- and dust-resistant (WR) construction
9 rounded diaphragm blades, 1/3EV increments across 19 steps
ø60.0mm × 51.9mm (diameter × length)
