This lense is compatible with all of the APS-C models where it will provide a 480mm focal length as well as full frame Canon electro-focus (EF) mount DSLRs. The Rounded eight-blade diaphragm helps in pleasing out of focus quality which benefits the use of selective focus techniques and shallow depth of field. Flare and ghosting effects produced by stray light are also prevented by built in lens hood. This lense hood also prevents the frontal lense elements from accidental scratching and impacts. This lense is sealed against moisture and dust which allows it to be used in unpleasant environmental conditions. Like all of the Canon's fixed focal length L-series lenses above 135mm, this lense is also compatible with the optional electro-focus (EF) 1.4X and 2x tele-converters. Filling the frame with a subject the size of a post card this lense focuses to an incredibly close 4.9 ft/1.5m and weights less than half the weight of the 300mm f/2.8L IS lense.
