LENSES FOR

BEGINNERS

Every day, you miss a chance to share your stories because you don’t have the right lens to tell them. Begin your story-telling adventure with a lens and camera kit to suit your style.

  

WIDE-ANGLE telephoto portrait macro

GET MORE IN
WITH A WIDE-ANGLE LENS

Wide-angle lenses are best for capturing the beauty of a
vast landscape. This is because your eyes are only capable of taking in
around 120 degrees of a scene at once, but a wide-angle lens can take in much
more. Also, when shooting grand interiors – there’s no need to stand up
against a wall to get more in the frame, as the lens will do it for you.

 

WIDE-ANGLE LENS
CANON EF-S 10-18MM F/4.5-5.6 IS STM

The 10-18mm focal range of this lens gives you an ultra-wide perspective, allowing you to get more in every shot. Perfect for travelling, its compact and lightweight so you can take it on day-to-day adventures or trips abroad. With the ability to capture striking architecture and expansive scenes, you can also seize the moment first time with its Image Stabilizer (IS) technology.

 

GET CLOSER
WITH A TELEPHOTO LENS

Sometimes you can’t get close enough for the perfect shot.
Wildlife adventures, and distant cityscapes could be captured in sharp detail
with the right telephoto lens, using powerful zoom performance so you can get
closer to your subject without having to move.

 

TELEPHOTO LENS
Canon EF-S 55-250mm f/4-5.6 IS STM

This lightweight and compact telephoto lens is ideal for shooting wildlife, sports and travel. Combining powerful zoom with great image quality for instinctive user-handling - the Image Stabilizer technology (IS) counteracts camera shake for sharper images when zooming or shooting in low light and STM focusing delivers smooth, quiet focus for movies.

 

GET FOCUS
WITH A PORTRAIT LENS

A beautiful portrait photo should capture the personality
and emotions of the person you’re shooting. Human beings are the easiest
subject to come across, and creating a soft background blur with emphasis on
their expression, style or skin tone instantly brings the image to life.

 

PORTRAIT LENS
CANON EF 50MM F/1.8 STM

This lens helps you produce more artistic and powerful portrait shots thanks to a wide f/1.8 aperture which creates sharper focus on the subject, with a soft blurred background for greater impact. Compact and lightweight in design, this prime portrait lens can be taken everywhere, perfect for shooting friends and family with a truly professional result.

 

GET DETAIL
WITH A MACRO LENS

Shoot the world around you in intricate detail with macro
photography. A macro lens lets you produce close-up images of much smaller
subjects at life-size scale. From nature and wildlife to food or jewellery,
capture the shine and textures of the natural landscape in sharp focus with a
beautiful background blur to really emphasise the detail.

 

MACRO LENS
CANON EF-S 35MM F/2.8 MACRO IS STM

Reveal intricacies invisible to the naked eye with this versatile macro lens, built with Macro Lite LED technology you can control shadows for sharper visibility of your composition and aid creative shadowing for maximum effect. The Image Stabilizer also minimises natural camera-shake so you can get up close and capture sharper details without the need for a tripod.
