Product Description

This XL wide-angle zoom lens provides currently the world s widest field-of-view on any DV camcorder and marks the second XL lens designed specifically to fit the XL1 DV camcorder, the world s first DV camcorder to incorporate Canon s exclusive Interchangeable XL Lens Mount System. The new lens widens the videomakers angle of horizontal view to more than 70deg., compared with that of the standard 16X lens supplied with the XL1 which provides 47deg.. This represents an increase in angle of view of nearly 50%. This 3.4mm to 10.2 mm short zoom lens enables consumers and videographers to move from vast landscapes to close-ups with maximum flexibility. It is the equivalent of a 24mm to 72mm 35mm photography lens. And, in addition to it being a desirable angle among videographers, the lens is lightweight, portable and easy to use.
