Whether to shoot grand scenes or tight shots, the images you get with this lens will be of superior quality, high resolution and good sharpness. Being a full-frame lens means it can shoot wider than its APS-C equivalents, leaving you plenty of room for pan-and-scan or punching in the post.
For ex. if part of an image is redundant, just crop it out without worrying about pixel loss.
The 100 mm focal length has the ability to produce strong background compression as well as beutiful oval bokeh with distinct focus fall-off, perfect for shooting portraits, sports, weddings and wildlife. It will produce shallow depth of field and streched dreamy background.

When shooting wide open at T2.9 with the focus concentrating on the subject, you´ll get a shallow depth of field image with the subject in focus and other areas out of focus. Using a wide aperture in low light conditions enables the camera to take in more light and achieves a faster shutter speed. Also, the aperture ring is engineered stepless to offer smooth iris control.
This lens looks super sleek as the whole barrel is built up of aluminium alloy. On top of that, the aperture and focus rings are both geared for a nice resistance and easy installation of follow-focus system. With a 1/4" screw hole at the bottom, the lens can be mounted directly on the quick release plate to maintain the balance of the whole setup.
