EF 100mm f/2 USM

The Canon EF 100mm f/2 USM is a short-telephoto prime lens designed for Canon EF-mount DSLRs that excels in portraiture and subject isolation through its compressed perspective and bright f/2 maximum aperture. The lens features a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor for fast, quiet autofocus with full-time manual focus override, alongside a rounded eight-blade diaphragm that produces appealing out-of-focus rendering for shallow depth of field work. Super Spectra coatings on individual lens elements minimize ghosting and flare while maximizing contrast and color fidelity in bright lighting conditions.

On full-frame Canon bodies, this lens delivers a 24-degree angle of view, while on APS-C models it provides a 160mm equivalent focal length. The compact optical design weighs only 1.01 pounds and features an aperture range from f/2 to f/22, with a minimum focus distance of 2.95 feet, making it versatile for various shooting scenarios from portraiture to low-light situations.
