Boasting a seven-blade circular aperture, the lens creates a beautifully smooth bokeh effect, adding an artistic touch to your images with a pleasing background blur. The robust metal mount underscores the lens's durability, while the multi-coated lens elements minimize glare and maximize optical performance.
