The perfect "walk-around" lens
If you own a Canon APS-C sensor DSLR, this lens will fast become part of your essential traveling kit. Its "pancake" profile and low weight make it too portable to ignore, and when you add Canon's impeccable build quality and the lens' light sensitivity into the equation, it all adds up to "I have to have one."
You can shoot a huge variety of subjects, near and far, with this lens due to its versatile, 38mm equivalent fixed focal length.

This is a great compact lens to compliment any Canon EOS camera. It has a wide angle view and low light ability. It is extremely small and light. It produces excellent quality photos.
