The Canon lens, designed for full-frame, is very robustly built. Its ultrasonic motor not only ensures very fast focusing, but also sets the standard for accuracy among Canon optics.
Canon EF USM 1.4/50
Canon EF, full sizeProduct details
Versatile, compact standard lens. Gaussian optics and two high-refractive-index glass elements ensure sharp, clear images across nearly all areas of photography, even at the maximum aperture of f/1.4. This lens is ideal for landscape and travel photography, as well as portraits and reportage.
Ultrasonic focusing. An ultrasonic motor provides very fast and extremely quiet autofocus. Thanks to excellent holding torque, inaccuracies are avoided. Additionally, manual focusing is always possible without switching modes, allowing for adjustments to sharpness without needing to disable the AF function.
Attractive background blur. The nearly circular aperture gives the out-of-focus areas a softer, more uniform appearance. The targeted use of background blur emphasizes the subject in the foreground.
Super Spectra coating. The Super Spectra coating ensures excellent color balance and enhanced contrast. It also minimizes lens flare and ghosting—common issues caused by light reflecting off the camera sensor.

- Standard angle of view of 46°
- USM AF motor with manual focus available at any time
