Two New Wide Angle Tilt/Shift Lenses from Canon

Canon TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II and TS-E 17mm f/4L Tilt/Shift Lenses

Canon’s two new tilt/shift lenses – the TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II and the TS-E 17mm f/4L – are the latest addition to the camera giant’s already huge arsenal of lenses.

Both the TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II and the TS-E 17mm f/4L are specialty lenses ideal for landscape and architectural photography and are compatible with all Canon EOS system single lens reflex cameras.

Canon explains that the TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II, a replacement for Canon’s TS-E 24mm f/3.5L introduced in 1991, has significantly improved operability with low distortion when photographing buildings, consistent image quality throughout the image and reduced chromatic aberration when shooting at ultra-wide angles. The TS-E 17mm f/4L is the world’s shortest focal length Tilt-Shift lens with full-frame 35mm coverage.

The TS-E 24mm f/3.5L II is expected to ship in May for an estimated retail price of $2,200. The TS-E 17mm f/4L is expected to ship in May for an estimated retail price of $2,500.
