Canon EF 35-80mm f/4-5.6 III Lens
The most affordable zoom lens in the entire EF lens system. Light and ultracompact, this lens isn't lacking for optical performance--it has an Aspherical lens element for better optical quality, and its close-focusing allows filling the frame with a subject the size of a postcard at its 80mm focal length. It’s a great entry into SLR photography and the EOS system.All-Around, Practical LensesVery likely, your first EF lens will be (or was) one of these lenses. After all, they feature the most popular focal lengths. From wide-angle to telephoto, you get the best of both worlds. The smaller the maximum aperture, the smaller and lighter the lens.
