Compact zoom lens that takes you closer Getting you closer to the action, the EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM is designed exclusively for EOS-M cameras. It’s the perfect companion for the Canon EF-M 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS STM, allowing you to bring distant subjects closer – ideal for wildlife, sports and travel photography. Optical Image Stabilizer To help maintain sharpness, the EF-M 55-200mm f/4.5-6.3 IS STM features an Image Stabilizer that protects against the blur caused by accidental movement while shooting – known as camera shake. Shutter speeds up to 3.5 stops slower than usual can be used, enabling hand-held photography in low-light conditions. STM focusing technology Stepping motor (STM) technology delivers focusing that is fast and accurate when taking photos and smooth and near-silent when shooting video. Because STM movements are so smooth and quiet, video clips are free from unwanted focusing noise and distracting changes in focus. Great quality images that you’ll be proud of Sophisticated optical materials deliver photos that are packed with sharp detail, dynamic contrast and rich colours. Draw attention to your subject by isolating it against a smooth out-of-focus background. Designed to make great photography easy A manual-focus ring enables precise focusing adjustments to be made quickly and easily at any time. A closest-focusing distance of 1 meter is great for powerful portraits and close-ups details.
