Canon EF 135mm f/2.0 L USM

The Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM available at Lightbulb Rentals is an excellent choice for portraiture, characterized by its medium telephoto focal length and belonging to Canon’s prestigious L-series of lenses. Its long focal length, combined with a bright f/2 maximum aperture, provides photographers with extensive control over depth of field, allowing for selective focus and effective subject isolation. This aperture also facilitates shooting in low-light conditions without compromising image quality.
Optically, the lens incorporates two ultra-low dispersion (UD) elements that effectively minimize chromatic aberrations and color fringing, resulting in exceptional clarity and color accuracy in images. A Super Spectra coating applied to the lens elements reduces flare and ghosting, enhancing contrast and maintaining color neutrality, especially in challenging lighting conditions.
The Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM features a ring-type Ultrasonic Motor (USM) and a rear focusing system, enabling fast, precise, and quiet autofocus performance. Full-time manual focus control allows photographers to make fine adjustments manually even after autofocus has been achieved. A rounded eight-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing bokeh quality, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of out-of-focus backgrounds and foregrounds.
Designed to withstand demanding shooting environments, the lens is dust and moisture-resistant, ensuring reliable performance outdoors in various weather conditions. It is compatible with optional EF 1.4X and EF 2X teleconverters, expanding its versatility for photographers seeking additional focal length reach.
Overall, the Canon EF 135mm f/2L USM lens is a top-tier choice for portrait photographers and enthusiasts alike, offering exceptional optical performance, robust build quality, and versatile handling capabilities necessary for capturing stunning portraits with striking clarity and beautiful bokeh effects.
