The incorporation of HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor) ensures quiet and high-speed auto focus. The OS (Optical Stabilizer) function effectively eliminates the effects of camera shake so subjects can be easily and clearly seen in the viewfinder as well as in the image. It allows the use of shutter speeds approximately 4 stops slower than normal for steady, handheld photography.<\/p>\n<p>For Sony and Pentax mounts he built-in OS System operates in conjunction with a camera body equipped with an anti-shake function and can be used as an alternative with cameras having built-in image stabilization. The Super Multi-Layer Coating reduces flare and ghosting and provides high contrast images throughout the entire zoom range.<\/p>\n<p>This lens has a minimum focusing distance of 110cm (43.3 inches) throughout the entire zoom range and a maximum magnification ratio is 1:4.5. An inner focusing system eliminates front lens rotation, making it suitable for use with circular polarizing filters.<\/p>\n<h4>Specification<\/h4>\n<table style=\"background-color: #dce2e9;\" width=\"680\" border=\"0\" cellspacing=\"0\" cellpadding=\"0\" align=\"center\">\n<tbody>\n<tr valign=\"top\">\n<td class=\"text11\" 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.
