| The Canon EF-S 17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM Lens is a large-aperture lens specifically designed for EF-S type digital SLR cameras and that offers a super wide angle to short telephoto zoom range with built-in Image Stabilization. The focal length is equivalent to approximately 27-88mm in 35mm format. This lens features a fast f/2.8 Maximum Aperture and Canons latest optical Image Stabilizer technology providing up to 3-stop compensation for image blur caused by camera shake and slow shutter speeds. This ensures clear crisp images even in dim light. Designed specifically for digital photography the lens has specially shaped lens elements and Super Spectra coatings to suppress ghosting and flare which can be caused by reflections off digital camera sensors. Key Features: Uses optics designed to take full advantage of the small image circle and short back focus in EF-S lenses Features three aspherical lens elements (two types) as well as a Super-UD glass element for high image quality at all focal lengths Optimized lens coating minimizing flare and ghosting prone occurring with digital cameras Ring-type USM provides ultra-quite super-fast precision auto focusing and predictive tracking Inner Focusing and new AF algorithms with full-time mechanical manual focusing Circular aperture diaphragm produces brilliant out-of-focus characteristics Will only work with Canon EOS Digital SLR Cameras with an EF-S mount Including: EOS 30D & EOS 20D Digital Rebel (300D) Digital Rebel XT (350D) & Digital Rebel XTi (400D) etc. Canon’s Image Stabilizer (IS) technology makes handheld photography possible in more low-light situations than ever before. When camera shake occurs using normal lenses without image Stabilizer technology the image projected to the focal-plane also shakes often resulting in blurred images at shutter speeds less than 1/focal length. When this same movement occurs with an IS lens attached a special group of lens elements automatically shifts its position thereby compensating for the shake and stabilizing the image. Here’s how Canon’s original Image Stabilizer technology works: A high-speed microcomputer built into the lens analyzes electronic signals emitted by vibration-detecting gyro sensors and controls a mechanism that moves the image stabilizing lens group parallel to the focal-plane resulting in a sharper image. This compensation effectively adds up to three shutter speed steps to your handheld shooting capability depending on the IS lens you choose. Canon’s IS lenses are perfect for low light or situations where a tripod is not convenient. |
