3. Funcionament de l'objectiu
3.1 Sistema d'enfocament automàtic
The VILTROX 28mm F4.5 lens incorporates an efficient and precise autofocus (AF) system. This system allows for quick and accurate focusing, supporting advanced features such as eye and face detection autofocus on compatible camera bodies. This ensures sharp focus on subjects without complex manual adjustments.

3.2 Fixed F4.5 Aperture
This lens features a fixed aperture of F4.5. This aperture setting provides a consistent depth of field and exposure characteristics, particularly beneficial for wide-angle photography where a larger depth of field is often desired.
3.3 Optical Design and Image Quality
The lens's optical construction includes multiple elements, such as aspherical and ED (Extra-low Dispersion) lenses, designed to minimize aberrations and ensure high image quality across the frame. A multi-layer coating is applied to reduce flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and color accuracy.

3.4 Unique Starburst Effect
The lens's front element design can produce a distinctive starburst effect when capturing images with strong backlit point light sources. This adds a creative visual element to photographs, particularly in night scenes or urban environments.

4. Manteniment
4.1 Neteja de la lent
To maintain optimal performance and image quality, keep the lens elements clean. Use a soft, lint-free microfiber cloth specifically designed for optics. For stubborn smudges, a small amount of lens cleaning solution applied to the cloth (not directly to the lens) can be used. The front element features a waterproof and anti-fouling coating for easier cleaning.
4.2 Emmagatzematge
When not in use, store the lens with its cap attached in a dry, dust-free environment. Avoid extreme temperatures and high humidity, which can affect lens performance and longevity.
