A lens that's absolutely unique in all of SLR photography - it's the fastest lens for a 35mm or digital SLR camera in the world. A large ground and polished Aspheric lens element allows excellent performance free from spherical aberration (a common problem with fast normal lenses), even when shooting at f/1.0. Obviously an ideal low-light lens, it's also found a home with professionals for both its sharpness in ordinary daylight situations, and its ability when wide-open to combine an out-of-focus background with a normal perspective - a look you often see in fashion, outdoor catalogue, and commercial photos.
