Canon TS-E 17mm f/4L Tilt-Shift

The TS-E 17mm f/4L, aCanon L-series tilt-shift lens, offers an expansive ultra-wide field of view along with sophisticated perspective and focus control, making it ideal for architectural and interior photography. It allows for a tilt of up to +/- 6.5, facilitating precise focus adjustments, and a shift of +/- 12mm to refine perspective and composition. The tilt-shift mechanism can be rotated by +/- 90, enabling movements in any direction, while a tilt-locking feature enhances stability during shooting.

In addition to its operational capabilities, this L-series prime lens is notable for its advanced optical design, which incorporates four Ultra-Low Dispersion elements to effectively minimize color fringing and chromatic aberrations. It also includes one aspherical element to reduce spherical aberrations and distortion. Each element is treated with a Subwavelength Coating to mitigate flare and ghosting, thereby improving contrast and color fidelity. Furthermore, a floating optical system combined with a rear focus design ensures consistent image quality across the entire focusing range, from 9.8 inches to infinity.

• Perspective control, tilt-shift lens affords +/- 12mm of shift and +/- 6.5 of tilt, and both types of movements can be applied independently, and parallel or perpendicular to one another. Additionally, the tilt and shift functions can be rotated +/- 90 for applying the movements in distinct directions.
• Tilt-locking mechanism ensures the lens stays in place while shooting.
• Four Ultra-Low Dispersion elements are used to greatly reduce color fringing and chromatic aberrations in order to achieve greater clarity and color accuracy.
• One aspherical element limits distortion and spherical aberrations to realize greater sharpness and accurate rendering.
• A Sub Wavelength Coating has been applied to individual elements to control lens flare and ghosting for greater contrast and color fidelity when working in strong lighting conditions.
• Floating optical system, along with a rear focusing mechanism, maintains consistent image quality throughout the focusing range, from 9.8″ to infinity.
• As a member of the esteemed L-series, this lens is sealed against dust and moisture for working in inclement environmental conditions.
• Rounded eight-blade diaphragm contributes to a pleasing out of focus quality that benefits the use of shallow depth of field techniques.
