  • Key Specs
    • Lens Mount Compatibility: Canon EF
    • Lens Type: Wide Angle zoom
    • Minimum Focal Length: 28 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Focal Length: 28 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
    • Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

Canon EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM Wide-Angle Lens: This compact, lightweight lens is perfect for capturing a wide range of images. The 28mm focal length offers a broad perspective, while the short focusing distance lets you get up close to your subject. Fast and effective in low light, it features image stabilization technology which lets you use slower shutter speeds and is great for shooting stills and video.

Lens Buying Guide

  • Compatible with select Canon cameras: For Canon EOS cameras with an EF mount.*
  • Wide-angle lens for broad composition: Allows you to include more of the scene in the frame.
  • 28mm focal length: Excellent for shooting landscapes, architecture, group shots, travel shots and more.
  • f/2.8 maximum aperture: Produces clear images even in low-light situations, including indoor settings and on overcast days.
  • Aspherical lens elements for clear images: Corrects spherical aberrations, out-of-focus or distorted images that occur when light rays don't converge to a single point. A curved lens surface precisely focuses light rays for sharp image quality.
  • Lens coatings for improved optics: Minimizes ghosting and flaring across the lens surface.
  • Optical image stabilizer technology for clear handheld photography: Reduces motion blur caused by camera shake, so you can take sharply focused photographs at slower shutter speeds without needing a tripod.
  • Rear focusing system with ultrasonic motor: Delivers fast and quiet autofocusing with virtually instantaneous stops and starts. Plus, you can focus manually while still in auto mode.
