What’s the difference between EF and EF-S lenses?

Put simply, Canon EF-S lenses are designed solely for use on Canon APS-C DSLRs. Canon EF lenses are designed to work with full frame and APS-C DSLRs from Canon. Canon EF-S lenses have a smaller image circle that is only big enough to cover the smaller sensor found on Canon APS-C cameras.

Do all Canon lenses fit all Canon cameras?

No, crop sensor cameras (all Rebel cameras, 40/50/60D, and the 7D) can take EF or EF-S lenses. Full frame cameras (all 1D, 5D and 6D) only take EF lenses. The mirrorless camera (EOS-M) use EF-M lenses, but can use EF and EF-S with an adapter. You posted to a rather old thread, but

Can I use EFS lens on EF mount?

Negative. The EF-S mount on a lens is designed in such a way to be incompatible with an EF mount camera body. Besides, even if you could mount the lens, the image circle projected by the lens would not fully cover a full frame image sensor.

Are Canon EF and EF-S compatible?

You can attach EF and EF-S lenses, but via an optional accessory – the EOS-EF M adapter. Then, in 2018, a fourth new lens mount was introduced, this time for Canon’s new full frame mirrorless system – the RF lens mount. Again, you can attach EF and EF-S lenses, but via a different mount adapter – the EOS-EF R.

What does EF-S mean on Canon lenses?

EF-S stands for Electro-focus short back focus. This Canon lens mount was launched alongside the EOS 300D (EOS digital Rebel) camera in 2003. EF-S lenses have an image circle which just covers the sensor of APS-C cameras, meaning that the image circle is smaller in size than in EF lenses.

Is EF full-frame?

EF lenses are produced for Canon’s full-frame DSLRs. EF-S lenses are produced for Canon’s APS-C DSLRs. While there is a wide range of EF lenses, many of them are designed with advanced amateurs and professionals in mind. EF-S lenses, on the other hand, are designed to take advantage of the smaller APS-C sensor size.

Are RF lenses sharper than EF?

Which one is better STM or USM?

USM vs STM

Why are USM lenses more expensive?

“USM” signifies the lens has an UltraSonic Motor for autofocus. That means AF is faster and quieter then the less expensive lens, which uses a conventional motor. It also means that you can manually focus the lens without having to switch from AF to MF mode.

Are USM lenses loud? Micro USMs

Cheaper to produce because they fit in a wide range of lenses regardless of barrel size, they are also loud little buggers. While you might expect an ultrasonic system (which is literally any sound that is too high to hear by humans) to be completely silent, the micro USM is actually quite noisy.

Is STM Lense worth? In general STM lenses have quieter and smoother focus than their non-STM counterparts, especially compared to USM lenses. If you are shooting video with 2012 or newer EOS body (from the 650D onward) then this is a distinct advantage.
