Lens Cases and Lens Hoods

Functional, rugged and well-designed, these cases are indispensable

for protecting your valuable lenses. Dedicated lens hoods shield your lenses from extraneous light and prevent flare from spoiling your images.

Circular Polarising Filter PL-C

Type: Screw-in

Available Size: 77mm, 72mm, 58mm, 52mm

This filter can help to increase subject contrast by controlling reflected light from non-metallic surfaces. It is useful for reducing or eliminating reflections from glass and water, and can darken blue skies in certain conditions, without affecting the accuracy of auto focusing or TTL exposure metering.

52mm/48mm Drop-in Screw Filter Holder (w/48mm Regular Filter)

Type: Drop-in

Available Size: 52mm, 48mm

These holders accommodate screw- in filters. Available in 48mm for a number of EF & FD lenses, and 52mm for the new IS super- telephoto lenses.

Holder IV

Gelatin Filter Holder III & IV

Type: Screw-in

Available Size: 77mm, 72mm (Gelatin Filter Holder III) 72mm (Gelatin Filter Holder IV) 67mm, 58mm, 52mm

These holders allow 3-inch or 4-inch square gelatin filters to be fitted to most EF lenses. They require a Gelatin Filter Holder Adapter and, with most lenses, can be combined with optional gelatin filter holder hoods III or IV.

No.1No.2

Softmat Filter No.1 and No.2

Type: Screw-in

Available Size: 52mm, 58mm

This is a lens attachment for producing soft focus effects. A coated pattern over the filter diffracts some of the light passing through. Filter No.1 produces a gentle, subtle soft-focus effect. Filter No. 2 produces a stronger effect.

Loupe 4x

Loupe 8x and 4x

Magnifying Viewer

Designed for viewing 35mm film frames at high magnifications, these loupes incorporate a high-performance imaging lens system that eliminates all aberration and distortion. Super spectra lens coating provides both the 8x and 4x loupes with clear images, without ghosting or flare.

For Best Results with your Canon EOS Camera Use Original Canon EF Lenses.

As an owner of a Canon EOS camera, you will achieve the best results in your photography using Canon's own EF lenses. Each EOS camera body and each EF lens has its own built-in micro computer. These micro computers store a range of special data to ensure the smooth operation of bodies and EF lenses which support two-way digital communications between each part to allow exchange of information. Since the EOS System’s market launch in 1987, new functions have been added on a continuing basis. These improvements include adding Image Stabilizer to some lenses, speeding up the AF function, increasing the number of focusing points, and the addition of the Eye-Controlled Focus™ Function. As the system’s range of functions has evolved, the nature of the basic system of communications between lens and body has evolved as well, ensuring that complete compatibility is maintained. This process of evolution will continue in the future with the addition of more new specifications, resulting in still further gains in reliability. Accordingly, in order to realise the maximum performance of the EOS system and thereby achieve the highest possible photographic quality, we recommend that you use Canon EF lenses and Canon brand name accessories, since they are designed and manufactured to match the special qualities of your EOS camera.

Digital Camera Lens specifications

Canon has firmly established itself as a leading brand in the world of photography, and its digital camera lenses play a crucial role in delivering exceptional image quality and versatility. These lenses, compatible with Canon's range of digital cameras, feature advanced technologies and characteristics that cater to both amateur and professional photographers.

One of the standout features of Canon lenses is their advanced optical design. Many Canon lenses utilize Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) glass elements and aspherical lens elements, which significantly reduce chromatic aberration and distortion. This ensures sharp, high-contrast images with minimal color fringing. The use of Super Spectra coating further enhances light transmission while minimizing ghosting and flare, allowing photographers to capture stunning images even in challenging lighting conditions.

Canon offers a diverse lineup of lenses, including prime, zoom, macro, and telephoto options. Prime lenses, known for their simplicity and wide apertures, are especially popular among portrait photographers for their ability to create beautiful bokeh. Zoom lenses provide flexibility, allowing users to easily transition between different focal lengths without changing lenses. This is ideal for dynamic shooting environments where every second counts.

In recent years, Canon has also integrated advanced autofocus technologies into its lenses. The Dual Pixel autofocus system, which is found in many of its newer lenses, enables fast and accurate focusing, making it easier to capture moving subjects. Additionally, Canon's STM (Stepping Motor) lenses provide smooth and silent autofocus performance, which is particularly beneficial for video recording.

Another key characteristic of Canon lenses is their build quality. Many of them are designed to withstand the rigors of professional use, featuring weather-sealed constructions that protect against dust and moisture. This durability ensures that photographers can confidently shoot in various weather conditions without worrying about damaging their equipment.

Canon also places a strong emphasis on compatibility and innovation through its RF lens mount system. Introduced with the Canon EOS R series, the RF lenses utilize a larger diameter and shorter flange distance, which allows for more creative possibilities and design flexibility. This innovation has led to the development of cutting-edge lenses with enhanced performance that complement the latest mirrorless camera technologies.

In conclusion, Canon digital camera lenses are a testament to the brand's commitment to excellence in photography. With their advanced optical performance, innovative autofocus technologies, and robust build quality, Canon lenses are designed to meet the demands of photographers at every skill level, empowering them to capture their vision with precision and clarity. Whether you’re exploring landscapes, photographing events, or capturing intimate portraits, Canon lenses offer the tools necessary to elevate your photographic experience.
