Features in detail

Natural wide-angle viewThe EF 35mm f/2 IS USM offers a natural perspective and wider angle of view, making it a good standard alternative to the conventional 50mm optical lens when working with full-frame digital SLRs. When working with EOS cameras with APS-C sized sensors, this lens produces an angle of view similar to a 56mm lens.

Image stabilization for low-light photographyYou can shoot handheld in low light using shutter speeds up to four stops slower than normal. Image Stabilizer (IS) technology automatically detects when the photographer is panning while following moving subjects and turns off the stabilizer in that direction.

Large f/2 maximum apertureWorking with apertures as wide as f/2, photographers can use a shallow depth of field. Even in low light, you can enjoy a sharp view through the viewfinder and use relatively short shutter speeds.

Advanced autofocusA ring-type ultrasonic AF motor delivers fast, near-silent autofocus. You can take control at any time by switching to manual focus control.Modern optical designAn aspherical lens element produces the highest quality images, while a seven-blade diaphragm ensures smooth out-of-focus rendering. The EF 35mm f/2 IS USM focuses down to 0.24m, so you can get closer to your subjects.

Compact designThe EF 35mm f/2 IS USM is small enough to always fit in your bag, making it perfect for reportage or street photography.
