HSM (Hyper Sonic Motor), ensuring a quiet and high speed AF as well as
full-time manual focusing capability.

Low Dispersion) and three ELD (Extraordinary Low Dispersion) glass
elements provide excellent correction for all types of aberrations. The
super multi-layer coating reduces flare and ghosting. High image
quality is assured throughout the entire zoom range. This lens
