A specialist L-series prime lens with perspective control
This tilt-and-shift lens allows you to control perspective and depth-of-field thanks to carefully calibrated movements, outstanding optical engineering and precision moulded glass lenses for low distortion, exceptional edge-to-edge definition and 1:2 macro ratio.
Control depth-of-field precisely
Change the plane of focus to direct more attention to the subject and adjust depth-of-field as you see it, with no need for computers.
Correct perspective and verticals
Precise movements allow a ± 8.5° Tilt and a ±12mm Shift with a rotation of the shift/tilt functions +/-90° in any direction relative to each for quick perspective control.
Adjust focus detail in macro shots
A macro focus capability of 27cm means 1:2 life size images can be delicately focused with added control over perspective and depth-of-field.
Optical excellence, advanced design
Aspherical and UD lens elements minimise chromatic aberration while Subwavelength Structure Coating and Air Sphere Coating minimise ghosting and flare.
Versatile 50mm focal length
A 50mm focal length allows a natural view with the added benefit of perspective control to correct verticals and adjust plane of focus.
