The maximum aperture of F3.5 is ideal for indoor shooting and it enables photographers to emphasize the subject. Two ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion) glass elements and a SLD (Special Low Dispersion) glass element provide excellent correction of color aberration.<\/p>\n<p>Four aspherical lenses provide correction for distortion and allow compact and lightweight construction. The Super Multi-Layer coating reduces flare and ghosting. High image quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range. The incorporation of HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures a quiet and high-speed AF as well as full-time manual focusing capability.<\/p>\n<p>This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 24cm (9.4 inches) throughout the entire zoom range and a maximum magnification ratio of 1:6.6. The lens design incorporates an inner focusing system. It eliminates front lens rotation, making the lens particularly suitable for using the Petal-type hood. The Petal-type hood blocks extraneous light and reduce internal reflection.<\/p>\n<h4>Specification<\/h4>\n<table style=\"background-color: #dce2e9; height: 316px;\" width=\"680\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Lens Construction <\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\">\n<p align=\"left\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">13 Elements in 10 Groups<\/span><\/p>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Angle of View <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">102.4 &#8211; 63.8 degrees <\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Number of Diaphragm Blades <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">7 Blades<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Minimum Aperture<\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">F22<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Minimum Focusing Distance <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">24cm \/ 9.4 in.<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Maximum Magnification <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">1:6.6<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Filter Size <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Diameter 82mm<br \/>\n<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Lens Hood <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Petal-type Hood<\/span><\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Dimensions <\/span><\/td>\n<td class=\"text11\" colspan=\"2\" bgcolor=\"#ffffff\"><span style=\"font-size: 10pt;\">Diameter 87.3mm X Length 88.2mm<br \/>\n3.4 in.
