The EF Lens Concept
1
Approaching the human eye
How far can an SLR lens actually succeed in duplicating the
characteristics of the human eye? The natural colours of the
subject seen by a clear eye, precise expression that can focus
directly on what it wants to look at, a swift angle of vision that
loses no time in catching even the fastest moving objects.
Canon’s pursuit of the techniques and technologies that will
allow photographic lenses to approach the purity, expression,
and dynamism of the human eye will never be tarnished by
compromise.
Beyond human perspective
Why does that world we glimpse through the eye of an SLR lens
appeal to so many people? Events so rapid they leave no visual
impression, wondrous landscapes that peek out from unusual angles,
distances and details invisible no matter how much you squint.
Faster, wider, farther. There is no limit to the goals of Canon lenses,
blazing trails into a photogenic world of expressiveness that ventures
beyond human perspective.
Taking up the challenge of Canon lenses
Already more than half a century has passed since Canon developed
its first camera lens. And now, while making astounding
breakthroughs in cutting edge digital technology, Canon is raising the
design specification bar for the possibilities expected of each lens in
the world of SLR cameras, already advancing by leaps and bounds.
Our challenge now is to make the perfect lens, to meet the high level
needs and desires of photographers who want the best from their
EOS cameras. The Canon EF Lens. The Eyes of EOS.
