Utilizing XLD (eXtra Low Dispersion) and LD (Low Dispersion) elements, the lens effectively minimizes color fringing and chromatic aberrations across the zoom range, resulting in improved clarity and color accuracy.

The application of BBAR (Broad-Band Anti-Reflection) Coating on individual elements suppresses internal reflections, flare, and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color fidelity, particularly in strong lighting conditions.
