Canon launches the compact, ultra-wide-angle EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM

Designed specifically for the EOS M compact camera, it is Canon's first ultra-wide EF lens to feature Optical Image Stabilizer.

Canon has expanded its range of EF-M lenses with the introduction of its new EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM. Designed specifically for the EOS M compact camera, it is Canon's first ultra-wide EF lens to feature Optical Image Stabilizer. The new EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM lens offers a very versatile wide-angle zoom range. This allows users to capture the environment around them from close to the subject, ideal for adding more impact and atmosphere to each of their images.

Designed using the most advanced optical technologies, the EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM allows users to capture images with incredible levels of detail and quality. Manufactured to Canon's professional quality standards, this new lens features Super Spectra Coatings, designed to minimize ghosting and ghosting, ensuring beautiful results in every photograph. Images are sharp and clear thanks to Canon's Optical Image Stabilizer, which works to minimize blurring due to camera shake. Shutter speed compensation of up to 3 stops ensures high-quality photos, even when light levels begin to drop.

Recording stable, continuous Full HD video is easy with Dynamic IS mode, which combats the effects of exaggerated camera shake that often occurs when recording video while moving. The very quiet STM technology also guarantees that the sound produced when focusing will not be recorded during video recording, so that those who watch and listen later can enjoy very clear sound on par with the visual quality of the recorded images.

The new lens has been designed to fit in the smallest spaces, so you can take it anywhere. A new retractable optical design, a first for EF lenses, allows it to be locked in position with a small switch, so users can retract the lens into the barrel when not in use. This keeps the body slim and compact, reducing the lens length to just 13mm. An integrated ring allows manual focusing at all times, so you can make focus adjustments if necessary.

Designed to complement the compact and elegant style of the EOS M, the new EF-M 11-22mm f/4-5.6 IS STM has a graphite silver metallic exterior finish, while the knurled focus and zoom rings are comfortable and easy to use in your hand.
