What is Canon 24mm lens good for?

The Canon EF-s 24mm f/2.8 STM is a tiny and super-sharp normal to wide lens for Canon’s APS-C cameras. It makes an excellent replacement for any 18-55mm zoom, saving size and weight and adding a fast f/2.8 speed for use in dim light and making your viewfinder brighter….

Is Canon 24mm worth it?

Absolutely! Re: Is it worth getting 24mm lens? The 24mm is a fantastic lens, especially for that price. It will give you a very different look than your 50, and I find it to be better image quality than my kit lens at that focal length.

FD stands for Fully automatic Diaphragm. They were introduced with the FTb which I had in the 70’s (?) and were the first Canon lenses to stop down automatically when you fired the shutter.

Is a Canon 24mm 2.8 a good lens?

The Canon EF-S 24mm f/2.8 STM is a pancake lens that’s super lightweight, providing a useful equivalent focal length of about 38mm, and it pairs really well with Canon’s lighter APS-C DSLRs. Image quality is great, handling produces no complaints – this is a really solid lens that won’t let you down.

What can you shoot with a 24mm lens?

24mm lenses are great for full body shots or even for photographing about 3/4ths of the body. Many photographers go for more telephoto focal lengths, but a 24mm still isn’t all that bad.

What is the difference between 24mm and 50mm lens?

When it comes to photographing people, a 50mm lens emphasizes the subject, whereas a 24mm lens shows the environment. Image taken with a Canon 60D and a 50mm lens. That’s why a 50mm lens is great for head and shoulders portraits, while a 24mm lens is great for photographing people in the context of their surroundings.

Is Canon 24mm 2.8 STM full frame?

But this isn’t a full frame lens; it is for crop sensors, so you must multiply that 24mm by the Canon APS-C crop factor of 1.6x, resulting in an effective focal length of 38.4mm, or very similar to the angle of view of the 40mm STM on a full frame camera.
