Excellent quality of shooting in the conditions of weak lighting
Big maximum diaphragm of f/1.4 passes two steps more light, than f/2.8 zoom lens that does this lens by the ideal choice for shooting from hands in the conditions of weak lighting. the Wide diaphragm allows the photographer to limit to
depth of field when shooting. Creation of effects of small depth of field is one of ways to select the subject on a background and is the most effective if it is used in combination with a wide-angle viewing field of a lens.
Nine-lobe diaphragm allows "blur" smoothly and naturally the areas which are out of focus.

Refracting optics of a blue range made from the organic optical material developed by Canon Sets the new quality standards of the image prevents emergence of a color border by means of correction of chromatic aberrations to earlier unavailable level.
Ultralow-dispersive (UD) optical elements and two aspherical lenses provides excellent sharpness on all shot — even when shooting with the maximum size of a diaphragm.
Covering with subwave structure increases contrast and eliminates flares and a parasitic flare when shooting against light.

Fast and imperceptible focusing will allow to make unexpected photos
Ultrasonic motor of ring type provides exact, fast and almost silent autofocusing which allows to take pictures, without disturbing an object.
manual focusing Available at any time allows to configure focus without change of the mode of focusing and without taking away the camera from eyes.

do not stop shooting even in difficult conditions
Legendary high-quality design of Canon of series L differs in durability, providing confidence. The special design possesses protection against dust and moisture, and the covering from a flyuorin on front and back elements of a lens protects from pollution and facilitates cleaning.

Refracting optics of a blue range
Refracting optics of a blue range (BR) of Canon prevents emergence of a color border at lenses of large diameter. This unique organic optical material is more effective for prevention of emergence of such border, than other technologies, for example fluorine-containing and ultralow-dispersive (UD) or superultralow-dispersive (Super UD) elements. The color border arises because of a chromatic aberration — the phenomenon at which light of different flowers is focused on different points. Use of optical material of a blue range (BR) in the lenses EF 35mm f/1.4L II USM minimizes this effect. Then it is possible to configure other elements of a lens for ensuring excellent sharpness, contrast and prevention of flares.

Advantage:

• Wide-angle overview with natural prospect
• Excellent quality of shooting at weak lighting and control over depth of field
• Fast and imperceptible focusing
Sets the new quality standards of the image
• do not stop shooting even in difficult conditions
