From the Manufacturer
Fast 35mm wide-angle lens. With a minimum focusing distance of only 0.8 ft. (25cm), you can approach the subject closer and still obtain a more natural wide-angle effect. You can even obtain good background blur for portraits.

An affordable lens that’s ideal for tasks like group photos and other applications calling for excellent optical performance and moderately wide focal length. It’s compact and lightweight, and with f/2.0 speed, it’s a compelling alternative to a wide-angle zoom lens for low-light shooting.

Wide and Fast
If you need an ultra-wide angle and a large aperture, one of the following lenses will fit the bill. Ultra-wide-angle lenses can capture scenes beyond your natural field of vision. The EF 15mm f/2.8 Fisheye, the widest of them all, has a 180° angle of view. For more normal-looking wide-angle shots, there are longer wide-angle lenses up to 35mm with the maximum aperture you need.

Customer Reviews

Fantastic all-around lens!
Just a short note... When I upgraded to a DSLR system from my old-school 35mm, I was used to a nice standard 50mm f1.8. Well, digital doesn't roll quite the same way since you convert all of your factors for us Rebel/40D users. After conversion, this lens offers 56mm measurement, a very close range to my older 35mm SLRs. When I bought this lens and the 50mm f1.4, I barely ever used that 50mm, designed for portraits, and an outstanding job it does. But the 35 is terrific for shooting outdoors or with family and friends, and takes a terrific photograph for a fair price. I highly suggest trying this lens out.

Excellent lens
great lens for working at a relatively wide angle with a large aperture, i use this along with the nifty 50 to get most things done, havent had any issues with it yet.

Basic 35mm lens
This is a great low priced prime lens. While it lacks any zoom, it has a great DOF and crisp clear image. It is a bit noisy, but more than makes up for it with quality and small size. Highly recommended entry level lens for quick easy photos, and that old 35mm experience and shot.
