The sophisticated 18-element optical design promotes quality and minimizes aberrations, while a series of specialized coatings reduce ghosting and flare.
In addition to its dust- and weather-resistant sealing, the lens’s body is lightweight and compact at 3” long and 1.3 lb. It features manual iris control for video capture, a function button, a Control Ring, and takes rear filters.
Trading angle of view for speed, the 7-14mm f/2.8-3.5 elevates the full fishbowl circular perspective with L-series image quality and video-ready performance. Canon claims it’s the world’s first to cover a 190º angle of view, producing images with compelling distortions and unconventional perspectives, especially when shot at its minimum focusing distance of 5.9”. Here, the autofocus is driven by a leadscrew-type stepping motor.
Again, L-series image quality is achieved through the optical design, here consisting of 16 elements and anti-ghosting coatings. The lens also supports use with EOS VR system for monoscopic VR shooting, along with rear-mounted drop-in filters.
The 7-14mm f/2.8-3.5 has similar dimensions, sharing the same length but weighing slightly less at 1.1 lb. Dust- and weather-resistance is here too, along with the buttons and controls of the ultra-wide prime. The fisheye also sports a zoom limit/lock switch to prevent unwanted focal length shifts.
