Less than 3" long and weighing less than a pound, the lens offers accurate and reliable autofocus performance in its compact and lightweight build and includes focus tracking abilities. The lens’s intricate optical design allows for a close focusing distance of 4.7" and features five aperture blades in its diaphragm, resulting in unique and aesthetic ten-point sun-stars. The lens is also available in manual focus, 14-blade options in each of the four mounts.
