Canon EF-M 28mm STM Macro: lens with built-in flash! [UPDATE] – CHIP

It is as yet no official information is the manufacturer, but the new lens Canon, whose launch is expected at any moment, we already know almost everything. It’s hard to make it otherwise, as are its good quality, and on them – the optical characteristics of this lens, designed for bezlusterkowców family of Canon EOS M.

So we know that the Canon EF-M 28mm Macro STM will have a hybrid optical stabilization (iS) and the maximum aperture f / 3.5. Minimum focus distance is 9.3 cm, which will translate into a magnification of 1: 2 (this “almost” macro). Plus the quiet AF stepper motor (STM) and light weight – it will probably be the lightest macro lens in the world.

But this is not the most interesting. Because the most important novelty of this lens is that it features a built-in LED lighting, surrounding the front lens of the lens! In the case of macro photography it is the position of the light source is critical, even more than its power. Light, of course, can be turned on / off according to the user’s wishes – on the body you will notice a button.

[UPDATE 1]

Why no one had it not hit? So he rushed. We know at least one such case: macro lens Nanoha x5 bezlusterkowców for the Micro Four Thirds System. Quite extreme lens, offering a larger 5: 1.

[UPDATE 2]

Canon officially announced the offer with this lens. We already know that the cost is ok. $ 300 – the rest of the parameters we gave earlier. For dessert, a short video:
