Canon EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS SLR Lens

Equipped with Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer (IS) technology the Canon EF-S 18-55mm standard zoom lens is ideal for just about any application. IS technology compensates for camera shake by providing the equivalent effect of a shutter speed up to four stops faster. This allows you to take sharp handheld shots even in low-light conditions--a must for sports and nature photography. The lens also offers an aspherical lens element that corrects for aberration thus producing a topnotch image throughout the zoom range and a circular aperture that exquisitely renders out-of-focus backgrounds. Despite its minimal size weight and cost the lens expands the picture-taking possibilities any time slow shutter speeds are needed.

  • Focal Length & Maximum Aperture - 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6

  • Lens Construction - 16 elements in 12 groups including UD-glass and aspherical lenses

  • Diagonal Angle of View - 74 20' - 7 50' (with APS-C image sensors)

  • Focus Adjustment - Gear-driven

  • Closest Focusing Distance - 1.48 ft./0.45m (maximum close-up magnification 0.24x)

Canon EF-S 10-22mm f/3.5-4.5 USM SLR Lens for EOS Digital SLRs

With its effective focal length range of approximately 16-35mm in 35mm format the EF-S 10-22mm f/3. 5-4. 5 USM is a remarkable lens with outstanding image quality that will take your photography into new dimensions and areas of dramatic expression. The super-wide zoom not only gives you the freedom to get exactly what you want in the shot it dramatically alters perspective to allow for dynamic expression. The lens allows you to get extremely close to subjects exaggerating the difference in size between a near object and its background. Creative photographers can use this phenomenon to create excellent separation between subject and background for a strong sense of presence or for a pan-focus effect with everything from foreground to background sharply in focus. Exceptionally light and compact for its focal length range the EF-S 10-22mm f/3. 5-4. 5 USM also has an incredibly close minimum focusing distance of just 24cm. A ring-type USM works in concert with the camera to provide super-fast precision auto focusing and predictive tracking - with full manual override available at any time. Designed specifically for digital photography the lens has specially shaped lens elements and Super Spectra coatings to suppress ghosting and flare which can be caused by reflections off digital camera sensors. An exclusive optional lens hood can further reduce the incidence of flare. A circular aperture provides a pleasing background blur when shooting with a wide aperture; ideal for creating a sense of depth and getting your subject or model to stand out from the background.

  • 10-22mm wide-angle zoom lens with f/3.5-4.5 maximum aperture for EOS digital SLR cameras

  • Superior AF performance and speed with full-time manual focus with the turn of a ring

  • Close focusing to 9.5 inches; fills the frame with subjects as small as 3.6 x 5.4 inches

Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM Digital SLR Lens for EOS Digital SLR Cameras

A thoroughly modern design that's optimized for select Canon EOS digital SLRs. Its angle of view is equivalent to a 96mm lens on a 35mm camera with a floating optical system that can focus down to full life-size (1:1) magnification. Inner focusing driven by a silent and powerful ring-type USM means the lens' overall length never changes during focus. This lens is a wonderful multi-purpose lens that's equally at home shooting macro shots portraits or available-light photos. Like all Canon EF-S Lenses its use is restricted to the EOS 20D EOS Digital Rebel and EOS Digital Rebel XT cameras (as of February 2005).
