Even with longer focal lengths, the high-performance Distagon optical design enables consistently good correction all the way to the corners of the image and very low field curvature.  Distagon Design  Lens with aspheric optical surface  Lens made of special glass with anomalous partial dispersion  Aspheric elements and special glass “Floating elements” design
