Users can capture powerful images of subjects that are difficult to approach, such as birds and sports scenes, while also enjoying landscape photography unique to super-telephoto lenses by making use of the \u2018compression effect\u2019, which makes the distance between nearby subjects and distant background elements appear closer together. When used with an optional teleconverteri, you can double the distance you can capture, with the lens supporting focal lengths of up to 800 mm, or up to 1,200 mm in APS-C mode.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left;\">\u2022 Sharp Detail through the Entire Zoom Range means you can Capture the Details That Matter<br \/>\nExcellent image quality is offered no matter what distance users intend to shoot, thanks to its optical design featuring two ED (Extra-low Dispersion) glass elements and two aspherical elements which reduce chromatic and other aberrations, delivering clear rendering across the entire zoom range.
