typical of an l series lens, the ts-e 17mm f4 is of premium quality, in terms of both build and optics. image quality is superb, owing to an optical design including one aspherical and four ultra-low dispersion lens elements. these factors result in not only a high level of corner-to-corner sharpness but also a marked reduction in aberrations, while ghosting and flare have been minimised by the sub-wavelength structure coating.
