Combining a constant F4 aperture with premium G Lens resolution, it is astonishingly compact and weighs only 488g.

Key Features
20mm Ultra-Wide Angle: Starting at an ultra-wide 20mm rather than the conventional 24mm, it effortlessly captures much more of the scene, making it ideal for dramatic landscapes, architecture, and selfie-style vlogging.
Ultra-Compact & Lightweight: Weighing just 488g, it significantly reduces fatigue during travel, long handheld shooting sessions, or when balanced on a gimbal.
Premium G Lens Optics: Engineered with a 16-element, 13-group design (including 2 AA and 3 ED elements) to effectively suppress chromatic aberrations and ensure striking edge-to-edge sharpness.
Fast, Precise, and Quiet AF: Driven by two advanced XD Linear Motors, autofocus speed is approximately 60% faster, and tracking performance is doubled compared to previous models, effortlessly keeping up with fast-moving subjects.
Optimized for Videography: Designed to heavily minimize focus breathing, focus shift, and axial shift when zooming. It also features a de-clickable aperture ring for smooth, cinematic exposure adjustments.
Excellent Close-Up Capability: Features a remarkably short minimum focus distance of 0.25m at the telephoto end with a maximum magnification of 0.39x, allowing for stunning close-up shots with gorgeous background bokeh.
