It offers outstanding image quality and a consistently wide aperture of F/2.8, plus it's more compact and lightweight than any other lens in its class, measuring just 99mm in length and weighing just 420g. It is the ideal lens for discovering natural and urban landscapes from a new perspective. The optical design incorporates LD (Low Dispersion) and XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) lens elements placed to suppress chromatic aberrations as much as possible.
Short close-up distance for photos with particularly dynamic perspectives
The 17-28mm F/2.8 makes it possible to shoot even at close range. At 17mm, the short closest focusing distance of 19 cm enables fascinating close-up shots at a magnification of 1:5.2; at 28mm, the shortest focusing distance is 26 cm (1:6). In addition, a very shallow depth of field with an attractive blur (bokeh) is achieved with the aperture wide open. This effect becomes more pronounced the closer you are to the subject when shooting.
High-performance autofocus that focuses quickly and precisely in any situation
The autofocus system features a sensor that determines the current focus setting of the lens and an RXD (Rapid eXtra-silent stepping Drive) stepping motor. These ensure particularly high speed and precision during focusing, enabling the user to keep even dynamic objects continuously in focus. The ideal prerequisites for successful snapshots. The AF works so quietly that virtually no disturbing operating noise is recorded during video recording.
