Along with the announcement of the Canon EOS 650D has released a new pancake-type lens Canon EF 40mm f/2.8 STM . This objective is remarkable for its diminutive dimensions ( pancake , English 'pancake') is not usually the most common type in terms of objectives for digital SLR cameras in recent times but are more common in bodies of no mirror. The Possession of technology STM makes it interesting for the video it offers, in this way, steady, silent autofocus during video capture.
With a length of 22.8mm , 52mm filter diameter and weighs 130g light turns out to be an ideal complement focused on street photography. 7 diaphragm blades and viewing angle of 57 °, shows a schematic optical 6 elements in 4 groups organized , allowing a minimum focusing distance of 30cm. Distributed without the hood ES-52 to be purchased separately.
Regarding the price seems to cost around $ 200 (no official price yet for the European market), although it remains well above the price of the Canon EF 50 f/1.8 II with a price almost in half. Encajaríamos this objective within what we call normal goals , those whose field of vision and their characteristics are close to human vision (between 35mm and 70mm being somewhat flexible and a viewing angle of 63 º to 35 º).
One of the things that we can guess is that this whole movement 'smell' to CSC Canon shortly. Since this lens has full support frame can be mounted both in full frame format, APS -C or who knows, directly on the future possibility CSC Canon .
