Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM

Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM lenses are the entry into ultra-wide angle photography. And this lens is the ideal starting point: it's extremely sharp and offers superior correction of linear distortion, and its f/2.8 aperture makes it easy to use with slow, fine-grain films or in low light. It focuses as close as 10 inches (25cm), and for many photograhers gives the ideal combination of a wide-angle "look" without excessive perspective distortion.

A 24mm lens is not exactly as wide to present a powerful sense of presence to subjects photographed up close as the Canon EF 20mm f/2.8 or at the widest angles on other three generations of popular Canon EF ultrawide L-Zooms lenses such as Canon EF 20-35mm f/2.8L AFD; EF 17-35mm f/2.8L USM; EF 16-35mm f/2.8L USM (the alternate EF 17-40mm f/4L USM has a slower lens speed than comparing f/2.8 maximum aperture, so I didn't use it as a reference mark). It is more moderate in its visual effect. However, the midrange presentation adds an impressive range of photographic expression broadened by the availability of relatively good, large aperture at f/2.8. Needless to say, if you wish to have more control features in AF (such as Full time MF control) with added advantage in creative depth of field control via its wider range of low light handling ability, the earlier discussed Canon EF 24mm f/1.4L USM should be a more ideal choice.
