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.

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.
