Pairing these two attributes, this lens enables shooting at close-range while maintaining a broad sense of space and increased depth of field, compared to conventional telephoto macro-optics.
The lens is a compact, lightweight 24mm wide angle, full frame, prime lens for Canon's RF mount mirrorless camera systems.
It features close-up focusing down to 14cm (0.5x macro magnification), it has an aspheric element, and advanced coatings for high-quality images plus a fast, 9-blade f/1.8 maximum aperture that performs superbly in low light, giving beautiful out-of-focus areas and background blur.
A 5-stop Optical Image Stabilizer allows longer shutter speeds for hand-held shooting and slick video with more stabilisation (6.5 stops) on offer when used with an EOS R series body featuring an In Body Image Stabilizer. Takes 52mm filters.
The Macro design offers a 1:2 half-life-size maximum magnification and the bright f/1.8 design offers both depth of field control and suits working in a variety of lighting situations.
One UD (ultra-low dispersion) element and one aspherical element control both chromatic and spherical aberrations for sharp and accurate colour rendering.
The Super Spectra Coating resists flare and ghosting for improved contrast and colour.
The Rounded 9-Blade aperture contributes to a smooth bokeh.
The Optical Image Stabilizer reduces camera shake by up to 5 stops, or 6.5 stops with coordinated IS, to aid handheld shooting in low-light conditions.
The Configurable Control Ring can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
Weighing just 270g and featuring a gear-type STM Motor which enables fast and quiet focusing in a small form factor, perfect for travel and landscape photographers wanting to shoot on the go.
With a minimum focusing distance of 14cm (0.5x magnification), this lens offers huge creative potential, enabling photographers and vloggers to focus extremely close to their subject, while still being able to capture the wider environment around it.
Wide-angle Macro
- Wide-angle prime is suitable for a variety of subjects, including landscapes, nature, and street photography, and the close-focusing ability helps to hone in on nearby subjects in between photographing broad spaces.
- Macro designation offers a 1:2 half-life-size maximum magnification and a minimum focusing distance of 5.5.
- Bright f/1.8 design offers both depth of field control and suits working in a variety of lighting situations.
- One UD (ultra-low dispersion) element, and one aspherical element control both chromatic, and spherical aberrations for well-corrected imagery that is especially sharp and colour-accurate.
- Super Spectra Coating has been applied to resist flare and ghosting for improved contrast, and colour fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
Rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a smooth, pleasing bokeh quality.
Autofocus, IS, and Design
- STM Stepping AF Motor offers fast, quiet, smooth, and accurate autofocus performance that benefits both stills and video recording needs.
- Optical Image Stabilizer minimizes the appearance of camera shake by up to 5 stops, or 6.5 stops with coordinated IS, to better enable working handheld in low-light conditions and with slower shutter speeds.
- Configurable Control Ring can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
