category = Canon EF lensesThe Canon EF14mm f/2.8L USM is an ultra wide-angle
prime lens . It is the widest full-frame lens in the Canon EF series. Because it is corrected for a rectilinear projection, the field of view is less than that of the Canon 15mm fisheye.The front element of the lens is so prominent that it does not allow use of filters on the front. Filters are instead mounted on the rear end.
