Quiet, fast focus and superb performance

Developed under the concept of making large aperture zoom lenses user-friendly, the 70-180mm F/2.8 provides users with a great portrait & telephoto option to complement the existing 17-28mm F/2.8 RXD wide angle zoom and the 28-75mm F/2.8 RXD standard zoom lens.
