Canon EF Series Lenses – A Wide and 
Varied Selection
Perfected in Canon laboratories and proven in the field, 
Canon EF Lenses incorporate a rare array of the world’s 
most advanced optical, micro-electronic and manufacturing 
technologies. Many EF lenses utilize the advanced Canon 
Peripheral Illumination Correction feature, which helps to 
ensure beautiful, consistent color and brightness across the 
entire image plane. In addition to offering full compatibility 
with existing lenses, the EOS C500’s EF mount opens up 
new, creative possibilities with Canon specialty lenses, 
including Tilt-Shift, Macro and Canon’s exhilarating  
EF 8–15mm f/4L Fisheye USM zoom lens.
Tilt-Shift Lenses — TS-E lenses incorporate tilt and shift 
functions to extend the shooting advantages of technical-view 
cameras to the EOS system. Tilt movements alter the angle 
of the focal plane between the lens and image sensor, 
modifying depth-of-field independently of the lens aperture. 
Shift movements slide the lens’ optical axis along the plane 
of the image sensor, enabling photographers to correct or 
alter perspective to almost any angle, and help add 
unimagined drama to a scene.
Macro Lenses — By revealing the finest detail and achieving 
extraordinary edge-to-edge accuracy at very shallow 
depth-of-field, macro photography can be an ultimate test of 
optical performance. Canon EF specialty lenses include six 
ultra-precise macro lenses and three screw-on, close-up 
lenses. Accompanied by the Life-Size Converter EF and two 
Extension Tube accessories, Canon’s macro lens array provides 
valuable imaging options for the EOS C500 camera.
Fisheye Zoom Lens — Super wide-angle and special-effects 
photography let you capture each subject from a unique 
perspective. The Canon EF 8–15mm f/4L Fisheye USM is the 
world’s first fisheye zoom lens to create circular images with 
a 180-degree angle-of-view on full-frame DSLRs.
Canon L-Series Lenses
Canon L-series Lenses are highly regarded by video professionals 
who demand uncompromising optical performance. These 
specialty lenses incorporate a number of innovative Canon 
technologies, including Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) glass, 
fluorite and aspherical lens elements, plus Super Spectra 
Multi Coating.
CANON CINEMA & EF LENSES 
– A NEW WORLD OF HIGH RESOLUTION IMAGING
Canon Cinema Lenses
Canon offers a complete line of cinema lenses, including Zooms, 
Compact Zooms and Primes. All of these lenses fulfill contemporary  
4K production standards, further enhancing the performance of any 
HD imaging system. And each lens features an 11-blade aperture 
diaphragm to help ensure beautiful bokeh. Markings on both sides 
of the lens barrel simplify focus reading and aperture setting from 
behind or on either side of the camera, while torque of the control 
rings maintains proper resistance. To enable film crews to change 
optics quickly and without adjusting the rig setup, each category of 
Cinema Lenses shares a uniform front diameter, rotation angle for 
operational controls, and gear positions.
Canon Cinema Zoom and  
Compact Zoom Lenses
Canon Cinema Zoom and Compact Zoom Lenses use new optical 
glass materials, new optical coatings and powerful new design 
techniques to offer extraordinary 4K optical performance. All Zoom 
Lenses feature large aspherical lens elements that help achieve 
sharp, consistent images, and a geared inner-focusing mechanism 
helps minimize focus-induced changes in the angle-of-view, greatly 
reducing focus breathing. All of these lenses are available with 
industry-standard PL-mount or Canon’s EF-mount. 
The wide-angle Cinema Zoom CN-E14.5–60mm T2.6 L S/SP 
represents a masterpiece of contemporary optical design, with  
a focal range that was chosen to meet a wide range of needs  
in movie-making and high-end television production, and 
resolution that exceeds 4K. The Cinema Zoom telephoto  
CN-E30–300mm T2.95–3.7 L S/SP lens rivals best-in-class zoom 
lenses, in a surprisingly low-weight, opto-mechanical housing.
Canon Cinema Compact Zoom Lenses offer 4K resolution in  
form factors that enable more flexible, less intrusive shooting.  
The CN-E15.5–47mm T2.8 L S/SP delivers a wide to medium  
range of focal lengths, while the CN-E30–105mm T2.8 L S/SP 
covers wide to modest telephoto shots. Both zoom lenses are 
ideal for Steadicam™ and hand-held shooting.
Canon Cinema Prime Lenses
The flexible series of Canon Cinema Prime Lenses offers spectacular  
4K-image quality and a full-frame image circle, in lightweight, 
compact designs. This family of lenses features high optical speed, 
produces exceptionally sharp images and superb contrast, and 
maintains tightly controlled focus breathing and geometric distortion.  
These EF-mount models offer consistent form factors and markings 
that have been optimized for motion picture production, and 
represent the beginning of an evolving family of cinema primes. 
Canon Cinema Prime Lenses are also compatible – under manual  
operation – with all Canon EOS DSLR models, including the full- 
frame EOS-1D X and EOS 5D Mark III, as well as the EOS 7D  
and EOS 60D models that use APS-C sized image sensors.
The EOS C500 is intended to be a major production tool for high-end motion imaging – in the globally established 2K 
motion picture production and HD television production arenas, as well as in the steadily emerging 4K motion imaging 
sectors. With that in mind, Canon launched a large Cinema EOS project that encompassed a parallel development of four 
Cinema EOS cameras and a family of Cinema Prime and Zoom lenses. The latter have been carefully designed to meet the 
full optical performance expectations of 4K imaging. This unique strategy ensures the exceptional creation of HD and 2K 
images, as well as the production of a flexible 4K lens-camera motion imaging system without peer.
The PL camera mount is recognized as the industry standard for large-format cinematography – for both motion picture film  
and digital cameras. Cinema Zoom lenses are all available in PL mount and, accordingly, provide the most contemporary  
optical performance to all Super 35mm digital and film cameras, as well as the Canon Cinema EOS C500 and C300 cameras.  
But Canon also recognized the existence of a huge global constituency of still-image photographers using the extensive 
range of Canon EF lenses, with many aspiring to transition to digital motion imaging. Therefore, Canon chose to make the 
Cinema Zoom lenses available with the alternative EF mount, and has also developed a range of EF mount 4K Cinema 
Prime lenses. In concert with this strategy, the EOS C500 camera is also available in PL mount or EF mount.
