L series optics

The impressive f / 1.8 maximum aperture offers ample control over depth of field for selective focus applications and offers benefits even when working in low light conditions.

Three ultra-low dispersion elements control a variety of aberrations to achieve high sharpness, clarity and accurate color rendering.

Both Air Sphere and Super Spectra coatings improve image quality while maintaining high contrast and color accuracy while reducing lens flare and ghosting when working in bright lighting conditions.

The rounded nine-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality.

Nano USM autofocus and image stabilization

Nano USM delivers fast, accurate, and near-silent autofocus performance that benefits both photo and video applications.

Customizable lens function buttons on the barrel allow for intuitive touch control and quick access to shooting settings.

Benefitting from handheld and monopod-based shooting, optical image stabilization compensates for 5.5 stops of camera shake or up to 8 stops when paired with internal image stabilization for sharper images.

Robust design and intuitive handling

Weatherproof design for reliable use in adverse conditions.

The fluorine coating on the front element helps repel moisture, dust and fingerprints and is also easier to clean.

The configurable control dial can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
