Subwavelength structure coating
Designed for use in digital photography Canon’s patented lens-element coating helps minimise the ghosting and flare caused by internal reflection and helps to deliver crisp clear images.

Smooth background blur
A virtually circular aperture diaphragm gives out of focus regions a softer more uniform feel. Sharp foreground objects stand out against a smooth blurred background.
