With its wide F/2.8 constant aperture, this superb high-speed
wide-angle-to-medium-telephoto (26-78mm equivalent) zoom lets you create
natural-looking pictures in almost any light, and shoot at faster
shutter speeds too.
One of the most compact and lightweight lenses in
its class, its shallow depth of field at wide apertures allows you to
create dramatic pictorial and portrait effects by softening background
details so the subject looks more vibrant and three-dimensional.
