Key Features
-
Compact and Lightweight: The lens is very portable, weighing only 160 grams and measuring 40.5mm in length. This makes it ideal for travel and everyday use.
-
Bright f/1.8 Aperture: The large f/1.8 aperture allows for low-light photography and beautiful background blur (bokeh), making it perfect for portraits and creative compositions.
-
STM Stepping Motor: The STM motor provides smooth and quiet autofocus, which is particularly useful for video recording. It ensures clean transitions when focusing between subjects.
-
Control Ring: The lens features a customizable control ring that can be used to adjust settings like shutter speed, aperture, and exposure compensation. This adds to the lens’s versatility and ease of use.
-
Optical Quality: The lens includes a PMo aspherical lens element to reduce aberrations and improve sharpness. It also has a Super Spectra coating to minimize ghosting and flare.
-
Minimum Focusing Distance: With a minimum focusing distance of 0.98 feet (0.30 meters) and a maximum magnification of 0.25x, this lens is great for close-up shots.
-
Compatibility with In-Body Image Stabilization: When used with an EOS R series camera that has in-body image stabilization (IBIS), the lens can benefit from up to 7 stops of shake correction. This helps in capturing clear images in low-light conditions without needing a tripod.
Build and Design
-
Durable Metal Mount: Despite its affordable price, the lens features a metal mount, which adds to its durability.
-
No AF/MF Switch: The lens lacks a dedicated AF/MF switch, requiring users to change focus modes through the camera’s menu. However, the control ring can be customized for quick adjustments.
-
Filter Thread: The lens has a 43mm filter thread, which is useful for attaching filters like polarizers. The filter thread does not rotate during focusing, which is a plus for polarizer users.
Image Quality
-
Sharpness: The lens delivers impressive center sharpness at f/1.8, with edge sharpness improving as you stop down to f/4 and beyond. The sweet spot for edge-to-edge sharpness is between f/5.6 and f/8.
-
Vignetting and Flare: There is noticeable vignetting at f/1.8, which reduces as you stop down. The lens can also exhibit flare and chromatic aberration when shooting towards the light without a lens hood. Investing in the optional ES-65B lens hood can help mitigate these issues.
