TSC
*
used for a more compact structure and enhanced performance.
* Thermally Stable Composite (TSC) offers thermal expansion characteristics similar to those of aluminum. Since parts made
with TSC expand and contract less due to changes in temperature, they tend to perform better under extreme conditions and
help maintain the performance of the lens. TSC also offers outstanding elasticity. Compared to polycarbonate containing 20%
glass, TSC offers approximately 70% higher elasticity. Compared to polycarbonate containing 30% glass, it offers 25% higher
elasticity. (Comparison is between SIGMA-produced components.)
