Its f/1.4 maximum aperture and optical design with 2 aspherical and 3 ED elements deliver sharp, high-contrast images with smooth bokeh from a 9-blade diaphragm, even in challenging light. The lens adds weather sealing and a fast linear motor for silent autofocus in a compact 375g body, making it a durable, discreet tool. This 35mm-equivalent prime is best for street and wedding photographers who need reliable low-light performance and robust build quality in a single walk-around lens.
