Overview

Incredibly Lightweight

The EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM is a fast and versatile lens with advanced AF and superior optics.

With a 35mm equivalent focal length of 38mm, it's appropriate for a variety of purposes. The lens features optimized lens element placement and includes an aspheric element for high image quality from the center of the composition to the corners, and has specialized coatings on the lens elements to reduce ghosting and flare. To ensure excellent color balance, a 7-blade circular aperture provides superb out-of-focus detail. The EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM excels during movie shooting thanks to its STM motor that enables silent and smooth focus tracking (on EOS cameras with Movie Servo AF), plus a micro-stepping drive that keeps aperture changes quiet. The lens also offers full-time manual focus, manual AF adjustment (one-shot AF), and can focus down to a minimum distance of 0.5 ft. (0.16m). Delivering optical brilliance in a lightweight and unobtrusive construction, the EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM is a great fixed-optical length lens for photographers looking to add a travel-friendly option to their collection.

Key Features:

  • Wide-angle lens for Canon APS-C cameras (equivalent to 38mm on a full-frame camera) offers an ultra-slim and lightweight design.
  • Slimmest and lightest lens of the EF-S series (approx. lens width is 0.9 in, or slightly wider than a U.S. nickel).
  • A stepping motor (STM) supports the Canon EOS Movie Servo AF function to provide smooth and quiet continuous AF during video recording, as well as when shooting photos.
  • Delivers outstanding image quality and excellent low-light performance.
  • Aspheric lens element helps you achieve a high level of image quality from the center to the periphery.
  • Optimized lens arrangement and coating helps minimize ghosting and flare.
  • Circular aperture (7 blades) delivers beautiful, soft backgrounds.
  • Aperture mechanism uses micro-stepping drive control for quieter drive.
  • Full-time manual focus allows manual focus adjustment while in One Shot AF Mode.
  • Minimum focusing distance of 0.5 ft./0.16 m; maximum magnification of x0.27.

Excellent lens!
Great build quality, even for such a small, cheap lens. Love the sharpness; can do limited macro with it. Good outdoors lens. Video focusing is quick and quiet; with a mic you won't hear it at all. Love this lens!

Great lens for Wide-angle Close-ups
I wish I had discovered this lens sooner. The combination of great sharpness, close focus, and small size make it a wonderful lens for close-ups of inanimate objects like fungi and flowers. It's not a replacement for my 100mm macro, but when I don't need 1:1 or even 1:2 magnification, it provides a more pleasing perspective for many subjects. The short focal length also means you can capture a depth of field that would be impossible without focus stacking using a longer lens.

I have read the technical reviews, but in my experience, you can stop down to f16 and beyond before there is any noticeable fall-off in sharpness. The tiny size is key to its usefulness at its minimum focusing distance of 160mm, because it maximizes the working distance in front of the camera. Image stabilization would be nice, but I wouldn't want to make the lens any bigger to get it.

When you hold the lens, it's obviously not an "L" series, but when you see the results, it's not obvious at all.

The icing on the cake is that this is by far the least expensive lens in my collection.

Was looking at the Fujinon 23mm F2 but read excellent reviews on this lens so decided to go with it and an adapter on my Fuji X-T2. Came in much cheaper price wise also.
