Thank you for purchasing a Canon product.
The Canon EF-S17-55mm f/2.8 IS USM lens is
a large-aperture, high-performance standard
zoom lens equipped with an Image Stabilizer.
It has been developed for EOS cameras*
compatible with EF-S lenses.
¡“IS” stands for Image Stabilizer.
¡“USM” stands for Ultrasonic Motor.
Features
1. The Image Stabilizer gives the equivalent
effect of a shutter speed three stops faster*.
2. Aspheric and UD lens elements for excellent
imaging performance with a large f/2.8
aperture.
3. Ultrasonic motor (USM) for quick and quiet
autofocusing.
4. Manual focusing is available after the subject
comes into focus in autofocus mode (ONE
SHOT AF).
5. A truly round aperture hole results in a nicer
background blur.
* Based on [1/(focal length x 1.6)] second. Generally,
it requires a shutter speed [1/focal length] second or
faster to prevent camera shake (in 35mm format.
With an EF-S lens, it would be [1/(focal length x
1.6)] second).
