The Canon RF 35mm f/1.8 Macro IS STM Lens for EOS R is a compact, lightweight, close-focusing, and unique wide-angle prime lens mixing the versatility of a general wide lens with the specialty of a 1:2 macro optic. An advanced optical design is benefitted from a Super Spectra coating, which helps to control flare and ghosting for greater contrast and colour accuracy when working in bright or backlit conditions. Capable of focusing down to 6.7" at half-life-size, this lens is ideal for photographing everything from close-ups of plants to street scenes and landscapes. The bright f/1.8 maximum aperture offers increased control over the depth of field and also suits working in various lighting conditions. Complementing this is a five-stop-effective image stabilisation, which minimizes the appearance of a camera shake for sharper handheld shooting. Also, an STM motor affords impressively quiet and smooth autofocus performance and full-time manual focus override. Additionally, a configurable Control Ring lets you adjust exposure settings, including ISO, aperture, and exposure compensation, from the lens itself.
