Compact, lightweight, and
close-focusing, the RF 35mm f/1.8 IS Macro STM from Canon is
a unique wide-angle prime mixing the versatility of a general wide lens with
the specialty of a 1:2 macro optic. An advanced optical design is benefitted by
a Super Spectra coating, which helps to control flare and ghosting for greater
contrast and color accuracy when working in bright or backlit conditions.
Capable of focusing down to 6.7" at half life-size, this lens is ideal for
photographing everything from close-ups of plants to street scenes and
landscapes. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture offers increased control over
depth of field and also suits working in a variety of lighting conditions. Complementing
this is a five stop-effective image stabilization, which minimizes the
appearance of camera shake for sharper handheld shooting. Also, an STM motor
affords impressively quiet and smooth autofocus performance and full-time
manual focus override. Additionally, a configurable Control Ring lets you
adjust exposure settings, including ISO, aperture, and exposure compensation,
from the lens itself.
Wide-angle prime is designed for
use with full-frame Canon RF-mount mirrorless digital cameras.
Bright f/1.8 maximum aperture
suits working in difficult lighting conditions and also offers increased
control over depth of field.
Super Spectra coating has been
applied to individual elements to minimize ghosting and flare for greater
contrast and color neutrality when working in strong lighting conditions.
An Optical Image Stabilizer helps
to minimize the appearance of camera shake by up to five stops to better enable
working in low-light conditions and with slower shutter speeds.
Macro design benefits working with
close-up subjects and provides a 1:2 maximum magnification along with a minimum
focusing distance of 6.7"
STM stepping motor offers fast,
quiet, smooth, and accurate autofocus performance that is ideal for video
recording as well as still shooting.
Configurable Control Ring can be
used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and
exposure compensation.
