Field of view and depth-of-field equivalence when this lens is used on bodies with different sensor sizes (natively or via an adapter).
| Camera format | At 35 mm | At 72 mm | At 150 mm | Equiv. aperture (DoF) |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Full frame | 35 mm · 63° | 72 mm · 33° | 150 mm · 16° | f/2.8 |
| APS-C | 52 mm · 44° | 108 mm · 22° | 225 mm · 11° | f/4.2 |

Depth of field & background blur#
Computed on its native Full frame format (CoC 30 µm). “Blur @2 m” is the size of an out-of-focus point at infinity, as a percentage of frame width, with the subject at 2 m — a simple bokeh index. Full table: 35 mm f/2.8 on full frame.
| Focal | Aperture | at 1 m | at 2 m | at 5 m | at 10 m | Hyperfocal | Blur @2 m |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 35 mm | f/2.8 | 13.3 cm | 54.9 cm | 3.85 m | 25.6 m | 14.6 m | 0.6% |
| 35 mm | f/4 | 19.1 cm | 80.0 cm | 6.37 m | 414 m | 10.2 m | 0.4% |
| 35 mm | f/8 | 39.2 cm | 1.81 m | 181 m | ∞ | 5.14 m | 0.2% |
| 72 mm | f/2.8 | 3.0 cm | 12.5 cm | 80.4 cm | 3.30 m | 61.8 m | 2.7% |
| 72 mm | f/4 | 4.3 cm | 17.9 cm | 1.16 m | 4.85 m | 43.3 m | 1.9% |
| 72 mm | f/8 | 8.6 cm | 36.0 cm | 2.41 m | 11.7 m | 21.7 m | 0.9% |
| 150 mm | f/2.8 | 0.6 cm | 2.8 cm | 18.1 cm | 73.6 cm | 268 m | 12.1% |

| 150 mm | f/8 | 1.8 cm | 7.9 cm | 51.9 cm | 2.12 m | 93.9 m | 4.2% |
Handheld & night-sky limits#
NPF assumes typical 20–24 MP sensors (≈6 µm pixels on full frame, ≈3.9 µm on APS-C, ≈3.3 µm on Micro Four Thirds).
| Body | Min. handheld shutter (longest focal) | 500 rule at 35 mm | NPF at 35 mm, f/2.8 |
|---|---|---|---|
| Full frame | 1/160 s | 14 s | 8 s |
| APS-C | 1/250 s | 10 s | 6 s |
| APS-C (Canon) | 1/250 s | 9 s | 6 s |
