Its f/2.8 constant aperture and HLA autofocus system deliver fast, sharp performance across its 28-105mm zoom range, which is unusually versatile for a lens of this speed. The robust Art-series build quality and a close 15.8-inch minimum focus distance add significant utility for creative work. This lens is best for hybrid shooters and portrait photographers who need a single, fast zoom for both environmental scenes and tighter compositions without sacrificing aperture.
