Enjoy quality optics with aspherical lens elements and ED glass. This combination makes for excellent sharpness and clarity at all apertures and focus settings. Cut annoying camera whirr out of your video footage. The linear focus motor drive gives you smooth, quiet, fast focusing during HD movie shooting. The internal focusing mechanism maintains constant distance from front of lens to subject for uniform imaging quality. Supplied with a lens hood allowing for attachment of separate filters.
