All lenses are crafted from high-quality glass, with seven featuring low refractive index and exceptionally low dispersion, and high abnormal partial dispersion, ensuring razor-sharp, high-contrast, and true-to-life colors. The lens's various focal lengths are achieved through reliable internal focusing, maintaining a constant, compact length throughout the entire zoom range.
