Canon EF 50/1.2L USM-CH Gar.

L-series quality lens

The EF 50mm f/1.2L USM is part of Canon's professional L-series of lenses. It combines superior image quality and ease of use with dust- and splash-proof construction.

Large f/1.2 aperture

With a large maximum aperture of 1:1.2, the lens offers outstanding speed for use in low-light conditions. In addition, the large aperture also allows precise control over depth of field. 

Excellent reproduction in the out-of-focus area (bokeh effect)

A circular iris diaphragm is used in the lens to provide an attractive, uniform blur in the background; ideal for isolating subjects at wide apertures and for compelling portrait photography.

Fast, virtually silent autofocus

Autofocus is operated by the ring-shaped Ultrasonic Motor (USM) built directly into the lens. This enables extremely fast and virtually silent focusing. A high-performance CPU unit and an improved AF algorithm in turn contribute to the high speed of autofocus. Good holding torque precisely guides the optical design to the focus point without stalling. The electronically controlled focusing can be taken over at any time by manual intervention without leaving the AF mode. 

Super Spectra coating

The Super Spectra coating and corresponding shaping of the lens elements effectively suppress ghosting and fogging effects, which can occur more frequently with digital cameras due to unwanted reflection from the sensor. In addition, this coating also helps to achieve natural, neutral color reproduction and increase contrast for vivid images with maximum fidelity.

Forwarding distance information to the E-TTL II flash control system

To ensure accurate metering when using flash, the lens relays distance information to the E-TTL II flash control on all compatible EOS digital cameras.

Accessories

The EF 50mm f/1.2L USM comes with a matching lens hood and lens pouch.
