Lens Description:

A Vintage Canon EF-mount standard lens built around a 7 elements in 5 groups (Gauss derivative) optical design, a well-regarded optical formula. The Canon EF 35mm F/2 offers a maximum aperture of f/2, controlled by 5 aperture blades for smooth, rounded out-of-focus areas. Weighing 210g — a moderately sized optic — it accepts 52mm screw-in filters and was first introduced in 1990. Focusing is handled via autofocus, manual focus, and the lens is categorised as a fast full-frame wide-angle prime lens.
