Aspherical lens
This fast wide-angle lens is especially compact and its imaging performance is outstanding at f/2. The rendition
of the finest details results in pictures with an extraordinary depth effect. Even in critical lighting conditions, for
example in backlit situations, distracting reflections and flare are largely eliminated. Because of its large aperture
of f/2, it can also be used for selective sharpness settings in the wide-angle range. And when pictures are to be
taken without flash under unfavorable light conditions at twilight or in sparsely illuminated rooms, this lens is
highly recommended.

DISTORTION
VIGNETTING
Distortion is the deviation of the real image height (in the picture) from the ideal image height. The relative distortion is the percentage
deviation. The ideal image height results from the object height and the magnification. The image height of 21.6 mm is the radial distance
between the edge and the middle of the image field for the format 24 mm x 36 mm. The graph of the effective distortion illustrates the
appearance of straight horizontal and vertical lines in the picture.
Vignetting is a continous decrease of the illumination to the edges of the image field. The graph shows the percentage loss of illumination
over the image height. 100% means no vignetting.
