Tips

For best results, use a shutter speed of at least 1/210s at the long end when shooting handheld without stabilization. The STM motor makes this lens a good choice for video, as focus transitions are smooth and near-silent. A 55mm circular polarizer can help reduce reflections when shooting through glass or water.
