Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM Lens

The Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM is a wonderful wide-angle lens. The Canon EF 28 makes broader the angle of view and increase the depth of field.

The Canon EF 28mm f/1.8 USM not only expands the apparent distance between the foreground and background, but brings more area into focus--a must for photographers who want vivid nature shots or crisp group shots. The aspherical lens element makes the Canon EF 28mm lens compact and corrects spherical aberrations.

The Canon EF 28 lens also offers an excellent price-to-performance ratio, with a high-precision aspherical lens that minimizes distortion and other aberrations to produce sharp and high-contrast images. With the large maximum aperture, excellent background blur is possible even with a fast shutter speed.  The image is sharp even at the edges. Light enough to serve as your standard wide-angle lens, the Canon EF 28mm carries Canon's one-year warranty.
