Differnce in chromatic aberrations (concept drawing)

Advanced optical designs include XR, 

LD, AD and ASL glass

The ASL lens technology compensates for spherical 
aberration to achieve outstanding image quality. At 
the same time, reducing the number of elements re-
sults in a more compact, lightweight lens package.

Toward Ever Greater
Compactness Featuring
Key XR Technology

New Standard of Lenses
for Digital Cameras

Reducing the total length of the optical configuration, we 
succeeded in developing optics that allow for a smaller 
lens diameter while maintaining the same aperture values 
as previous lenses for overall compactness. Optical 
power distribution was enhanced in a compact package 
through the innovative use of XR (Extra Refractive 
Index) glass, resulting in minimum aberration.

   Achieving the same aperture value with a smaller size

With a short barrel, it is possible to obtain the same 
visibility (aperture value) as with a long barrel. By using 
this principle, we were able to shorten the optic system 
length for a more compact overall lens design while mai-
ntaining aperture values.
