This extreme-telephoto lens features high-speed autofocus with its internal focusing system and uses AD (anomalous-disparsion) glass to correct color aberrations. A focus-hold button and focus-range limiter are provided for faster focusing,while a protective filter is built into the lens barrel. This lens is ideal for capturing wildlife and sports photography.
