Description

A 24mm to 240mm 10x zoom range allows this one lens to cover an extensive variety of shooting situations, making it ideal for travel where reducing luggage is a priority, for landscapes, architecture, snapshots, portraits, and much more. Switch between wide angle and telephoto without having to change lenses, so more of those fleeting moments will be captured.

Advanced optics effectively subdue aberration while achieving high resolution throughout the image area, and a precision linear motor drives focus for quick, smooth response. Handheld telephoto shots and low-light photography are facilitated by built-in Optical SteadyShot (OSS) image stabilisation, and the design is dust and moisture resistant for reliable operation in challenging conditions.

24mm emphasises full-frame visual impact
This lens goes wider that most other lenses of this type, with a 24mm wide end that makes a significant difference in the full-frame format. 24mm means more dynamic perspectives for scenery, architecture, indoor shots, and a multitude of other subjects. Excellent resolution is maintained throughout the image area at all focal lengths.

10x zoom captures subjects near or far
24mm to 240mm covers a broad variety of photographic needs. It is a one-lens solution that can reduce baggage when traveling and maximise efficiency at busy events. Move close to the subject and use the telephoto end of the range to create impressive perspective with smooth bokeh effects for subjects like flowers as well as general photography.

High resolution throughout the zoom range
Five aspherical elements and one ED glass element contribute to high-quality 24mm performance in a compact lens. All types of aberration have been effectively suppressed while high resolution is achieved throughout the image area. An advanced linear motor drives the focusing mechanism for quick, smooth response throughout the extended zoom range.
