Even at full aperture, the MTF curves show no edge fall-off. Additionally, fine details are captured with over 50% contrast, resulting in sharp images with excellent detail from corner to corner in all photographic conditions.
The lens’ apochromatic correction reduces chromatic aberration, ensuring a natural reproduction of every detail.
