on-camera
- Designed for the experienced and savvy user

image quality

- Less inherent linear distortion
- Equivalent effect of 4 stops Image Stabilization correction
- Closer minimum focus distances

- f/2.8 openings with 7 blade circular aperture for soft backgrounds
- New coatings deliver minimized ghosting and flare
- On full-frame EOS SLRs (EOS 5D and 5D Mark II)
- Each acts as a true wide-angle lens
- On APS-C sensor cameras with 1.6 conversion factor (EOS 7D, 60D
and Rebels)
- 24mm is equivalent to 38mm

- 28mm is equivalent to 45mm
- Becomes a standard view lens
Signature feature: WORLD’S FIRST FIXED FOCAL LENGTH, WIDE-ANGLE LENSES WITH IMAGE STABILIZATION!
With their f/2.8 openings, these two lenses rival the very best that the industry’s wide-angle zooms can produce — in a far lighter, smaller, and less-expensive package. |
