Walimex 650-1300/8-16 DSLR Canon M

A classic with excellent imaging performance. This lens telephoto zoom lens is quite handy and lightweight despite its length of approximately 460 mm. The thoughtful design (without a built-in aperture) allows for the use of 8 lenses in 5 groups, resulting in outstanding, color-accurate, and sharp images. The relative aperture of 1:8.0 enables a bright viewfinder image when used outdoors, making it suitable for wildlife photography or detailed landscape shots. The optics do not have a selectable aperture: the maximum possible opening is always available, and the optics are corrected for this, delivering their highest performance without being diminished by light diffraction at the aperture blades. The initial aperture corresponding to the respective zoom range is engraved on the mount for reference.

The attached 360° rotatable tripod mount allows for balanced attachment to a tripod and easy switching between portrait and landscape orientation. With a close focus limit of about 5 m at a setting of 1300 mm, nature photographers can choose exciting subjects. The lens works in most cameras in either shutter priority or manual mode. For more details, refer to your camera's manual. T2 connection, usage tip: The T2 adapter is screwed onto the lens, and then the lens is locked onto the camera. The side screws on the T2 adapter allow for the lens to be "uprighted" after loosening, aligning the index for infinity or the depth of field marks upwards. Retightening the screws securely holds the optics and adapter in place.

Save time in post-processing. Many lens errors such as distortion, edge softness, or vignetting occur at the outer areas of the image. When using a lens designed for full-frame on a camera with an APS-C sensor, these areas are not utilized. This way, you achieve maximum quality, eliminating the need for additional post-processing time to correct lens errors.
