This hybrid lens design incorporates a video-friendly Voice Coil Motor (VCM) rear focus system with a Nano USM (Ultrasonic Motor) for precise autofocus and near-silent lens operation. Its dedicated manual iris ring and AF/MF switch offer users heightened focus control and allow for swift settings adjustments. Belonging to the L-series, this prime lens promises excellent durability and features a weather-resistant design that protects against dust and moisture.
