Detailed Features

  • High-quality wide-angle lens

    A maximum aperture of f/2.8 permits hand-held photography in available light without the use of flash. Image stabilisation allows shutter speeds up to four stops slower than normal to be used without the risk of camera shake.

  • Fast, quiet autofocus

    Canon’s ultrasonic autofocus motor (USM) provides fast, near-silent focusing. Full-time manual-focus override permits fine adjustment without changing focus modes.

  • Close focusing

    Get as near to your subject as 0.23m, and enjoy a dramatic wide-angle perspective.

  • Space- saving design

  • Designed for great image quality

    A seven-bladed circular aperture provides beautiful bokeh, while Super Spectra coatings reduce flare. The EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM classic prime-lens design minimises distortion and aberrations, which can degrade image quality.
