The Canon EF 14mm f/2.8 II offers the widest angle of view currently available in any non-fisheye EF lens...an amazing 114°!
It is perfect for capturing wide scenes while minimizing distortion, and is the first choice of professional architectural and interior real-estate photographers. It is also ideal for landscape photography, capturing the amazing beauty of wide open vistas with amazing clarity and nearly perfect geometry.
This new design incorporates two completely re-engineered UD-glass elements as well as two high-precision aspherical elements which act together to improve sharpness and contrast across the frame. In addition, chromatic aberration is reduced to improve performance on the ultra-high resolution cameras that tend to highlight any defects in a lens. The lens is designed to seal out dust and moisture, and the Autofocus has been optimized to improve speed and accuracy. Truly, this lens continues the "L-glass" tradition of superior optics and build quality.
The front petal-shaped lens hood is built into the body of the lens, ensuring the best contrast possible and reduced flare.
If you need the widest field of view possible without resorting to the distortions of a fisheye lens, and you need the world-renowned clarity & first-class optics of an L-series lens, then you owe it to yourself and your clients to use this beauty on your next project.
