The ultimate ânormalâ lens in the EF system. This superb lens is sharp even wide open, and of course its f1.4 speed makes it perfect for available-light shooting. For many, itâs an ideal lens to accompany a zoom when shooting in low-light conditions.
Compact and affordable, itâs the only lens in the EF system to combine the extra-small Micro USM and still provide full-time manual focusing when the lens is in the AF mode.
