Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens
The technical details behind this lens
Canon EF 50mm f/1.2L USM Lens offers great optical performance. It features One aspherical element that helps to suppress spherical aberrations and distortion for a high degree of sharpness and accurate rendering. The Super Spectra coating has been applied to individual elements to minimize ghosting and flares for greater contrast and colour neutrality when working in strong lighting environments. The exceptional fast f/1.2 maximum aperture affords a great degree of control over the depth of field for isolating subjects and producing desirable selective focus effects. A ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM), along with optimized focusing algorithms and a high-speed CPU, is employed to provide fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance as well as full-time manual focus override. This lens also features a rounded eight-blade diaphragm that contributes to a pleasing out-of-focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field and selective focus techniques.
