A wide-angle 35mm focal length is ideal for photographing a subject in its environment, while retaining a natural perspective similar to the human eye.
A wide f/1.4 maximum aperture allows discreet, hand-held photography even when ambient light is poor. The EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM also lets photographers isolate subjects against a blurred background, despite the lens’s wide-angle focal length.
Blue Spectrum Refractive optics guard against colour fringing and allow the lens to deliver incredible sharpness right across the frame.
USM autofocus is fast and virtually silent in operation, allowing instant manual adjustment without the need to change focusing mode.
Weather sealing guards against dust and moisture, while Canon L-series construction adds durability and gives you confidence. A fluorine coating on the lens’s front element protects it from dirt and makes cleaning easier.
