Features

1.The Image Stabilizer gives the equivalent effect of a shutter speed four stops faster*1.

This function provides optimal image stabilization depending on shooting conditions (such as shooting still subjects and following shots).

2.Aspherical lens element result in outstanding image delineation.

3.Electronic manual focusing (MF) made possible by electronically detecting the rotation of the focusing ring.

4.Manual focusing is available after the subject comes into focus in autofocus mode (ONE SHOT AF).

5.Circular aperture for producing beautiful softfocus images.

6.Improved Movie Shooting Functions

•Stepping motor with lead screws achieves quiet, smooth Movie Servo AF. *2

*1: Based on [1/(focal length x 1.6)] second. Generally, it requires a shutter speed [1/focal length] second or faster to prevent camera shake (in 35mm format. With an EF-S lens, it would be [1/(focal length x1.6)] second).

*2: Function compatible with the following camera (as of December 2012):

EOS REBEL T4i/650D, EOS M (when using with Mount Adapter EF-EOS M)
