Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM Lens

The Canon EF-S 60mm f/2.8 Macro USM is a telephoto prime lens built for APS-C format DSLR cameras. It delivers 1:1 magnification for detailed close-up work and serves well for portraiture with its 96mm equivalent focal length. The f/2.8 maximum aperture supports low-light shooting and shallow depth of field control.

EF-S mount limits use to APS-C DSLR bodies

The EF-S mount restricts this lens to Canon APS-C DSLR cameras and it will not mount on full-frame EF bodies. Its fixed 60mm focal length means composition changes require physical movement rather than zooming. Autofocus is driven by an internal USM motor for quiet operation during close focusing.

1:1 magnification covers true macro needs

At 1:1 reproduction the lens captures subjects at life size on the sensor, suitable for product, nature and technical photography. The 96mm equivalent field of view provides comfortable working distance for portraits and detail shots. The f/2.8 aperture offers reasonable low-light capability but depth of field becomes extremely thin at maximum magnification.

Questions about this item

Is the 60 mm focal length right for APS-C portraits or should I pick a different macro?

On APS-C the 60 mm gives a 96 mm equivalent view, making it well suited to both 1:1 close-ups and head-and-shoulders portraits.

What does the 1:1 magnification actually deliver when I shoot?

The subject is reproduced life-size on the sensor, so a 35 mm object fills the frame horizontally.

Does the EF-S mount limit the aperture or autofocus on my camera?

The lens keeps its f/2.8 maximum aperture and uses Canon's USM motor for fast, quiet autofocus on any compatible APS-C body.
