23 elements in 17 groups
– 1 aspherical lens
– 1 Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion lens
– 3 Extra-Low Dispersion lenses
– 1 Ultra High Refractive Index lens

Aspherical (ASPH) lens reduce size and weight, effectively preventing spherical and distortion aberration.

Extra-Low Dispersion (ED) and Ultra Extra-Low Dispersion (UED) lenses correct chromatic aberration rendering sharp, high-contrast images with clear colors from corner to corner.

Ultra-High Refractive Index (UHR) lens improves optical performance, reduces size and weight, and achieves uniform image quality from the center to the edges of the image.
