The Lightdow MF 135mm F2.8 lens delivers captivating and beautiful background blur for every photo, along with excellent contrast and sharpness in the in-focus areas. Optimized lens elements, including 2 Extra-low Dispersion (ED) glass elements, effectively eliminate chromatic aberration. This control extends to areas with color fringing in front and behind the focus point, even in challenging scenarios like branches. The lens achieves exceptional clarity and high resolution across the entire frame, even when wide open.
UMC coating technology
Provides high contrast ratio
Excellent light transmission and minimize flare and ghosting making shooting of relatively short distance subjects more easily
Floating lens design ensures greater light intake and suppresses surface aberrations and distortions to increase image resolution
The lens consists of six optical lenses in six groups, and the Lightdow low-dispersion lens (ED) is used to minimize light scattering according to the wavelength of light, ensuring color difference in not only the central part but also the peripheral part of the image.
The F2.8 large aperture design ensures a swift shutter speed in indoor and low-light environments to complete clear shots, and the shallow depth-of-field effect brings out the subject for softer, more beautiful images.
The 135mm F2.8 lens is a full-frame telescope-level manual focus lens. It provides a sharp sense of color and a soft sense of defocus, and is suitable for a variety of uses such as portrait photography, night photography, wildlife photography and photo pictorial photography.
