Both the Canon 28-80mm f3.5-5.6 II and the Canon 35-80mm f4.0-5.6 III are considered to be Canon’s Standard Zoom lenses. In this review, we will compare and contrast these two lenses.
To begin, we will take a cursory glance at the primary specifications of these two lenses, and then in the next part, we will begin evaluating them in further detail and identify the benefits and drawbacks of each lens.
When comparing two lenses, size is a crucial decision aspect that should not be overlooked.
The Canon 28-80mm f3.5-5.6 II is 71mm in length, making it the longest of the two lenses. The Canon 35-80mm f4.0-5.6 III has a length of 64 millimetres, making it 7 millimetres more compact. In addition to being longer, the Canon 28-80mm f3.5-5.6 II has a bigger diameter than the Canon 35-80mm f4.0-5.6 III, which has a diameter of 65mm. The diameter of the Canon 28-80mm f3.5-5.6 II is 67mm.
The weight of a lens is just as significant as its exterior proportions, particularly if you want to hold your camera and lens combo in one hand for extended periods of time. The Canon 35-80mm f4.0-5.6 III weighs 175 grammes, making it lighter by 45 grammes (or 25 per cent) than its predecessor, the Canon 28-80mm f3.5-5.6 II, which has a weight of 220 grammes.
2. Standard Prime Lenses
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM
Canon EF 50mm f/1.8 STM Lens
- 50 millimeter focal length and maximum aperture of f/1.8
- Great for portraits, action, and nighttime photography; Angle of view (horizontal, vertical, diagonal): 40º, 27º,46º
- Minimum focusing distance of 1.15 feet (0.35 meter) and a maximum magnification of 0.21x
- 50 millimeter focal length and maximum aperture of f/1.8
- Great for portraits, action, and nighttime photography; Angle of view (horizontal, vertical, diagonal): 40º, 27º,46º
- Minimum focusing distance of 1.15 feet (0.35 meter) and a maximum magnification of 0.21x
- Stepping motor (STM) delivers near silent, continuous move Servo AF for movies and smooth AF for stills
- 80 millimetre effective focal length on APS C cameras, 50 millimetre on full frame cameras. Lens construction: 6 elements in 5 groups
When compared to the conventional zoom lens that is included with your EOS, the wide f/1.8 aperture allows in more than eight times the quantity of light. Because of this, the resulting photographs are crisper, there is less motion blur, and there is less of a need to utilise the flash while shooting in low-light circumstances. As a consequence, you will have an easier time capturing the ambience of a setting with low light.
Since of its 50mm focal length, this lens is excellent for taking portraits because it allows you to fill the frame with your subject even when you are standing a reasonable distance away. The EF 50mm f/1.8 STM is a terrific daily lens that you should always have with your EOS camera because of its compact size and perspective that is comparable to that of the human eye. When taking pictures, the nearly quiet STM (Stepping Motor) technology focuses the camera very rapidly, allowing you to respond swiftly and catch ephemeral moments.
It is much simpler to create movies of high quality with STM because it provides constant and silent continuous focusing. As a result, your movies will have a smoother appearance, and the soundtracks will just record the sounds of the environment rather than the noise of a focusing motor.
The widely used EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens has been succeeded by the even more popular EF 50mm f/1.8 STM lens. The EF 50mm f/1.8 II lens was well-liked for its well-deserved reputation for providing excellent image quality at an inexpensive price. The most recent update maintains the same breathtaking picture quality, but the focusing motor is now much quicker and nearly noiseless, and the body has been upgraded to a more durable design that belies its affordable cost.

The ultra-telephoto focus length of 800 millimetres may be achieved with the Sigma 300-800mm f/5.6 EX DG HSM lens, which has a focal length range that extends from 300 millimetres to 800 millimetres. The lens eliminates a significant amount of the guesswork involved in photo composition by continually adjusting the angle of view from 8.2 degrees to 3.1 degrees. When a strong focal length is absolutely necessary, this lens is an excellent choice for photographers who focus on animals and sports.
This lens is constructed to the professional EX standards set by Sigma, and it is meant to give exceptional picture quality as well as superior build quality. The use of two extraordinary low dispersion glass components helps keep chromatic aberration to a minimal, which in turn helps to ensure that images are of high quality and are crisp from the centre to the outside of the frame. Glass with a particularly low level of dispersion, known as special low-dispersion (SLD) glass, has been included into the APO lens in order to produce images of the best possible quality.
Because of this impact, colour aberration is reduced to a minimum throughout the whole image. This ultra-telephoto lens has been digitally optimised, and it comes with Sigma’s Multi-Layer Coating technology, which helps prevent flare and ghosting. This also guarantees that the photos have a good contrast ratio and precise colour balance.

When photographing stationary subjects or panning, the lens is equipped with Canon’s Picture Stabilization (IS) technology, which allows it to compensate for camera shake by about three stops without causing any discernible increase in image blur. Because of this, the number of situations in which hand-held photography is feasible has increased, which in turn reduces the number of times that a tripod is required.
The inner focusing ring-type ultrasonic motor (USM) is responsible for converting ultrasonic vibrational energy into rotational force. This allows the USM to deliver high-speed, high-precision, super efficient and virtually noiseless auto focusing, as well as good holding torque for rapid response and accurate stopping. It has the capability of full-time manual override without causing any damage to the focusing system. Throughout the entirety of the zoom range, the closest focusing distance is only 0.7 metres.
This lens is suited for use with digital cameras, which are more vulnerable to reflections off of the recording medium than film cameras are. Because the lens shape and coatings have been adjusted to prevent ghosting and flaring, this lens is perfect for use with digital cameras.
This lens has 22 elements that are organised into 16 groups, which results in low distortion and superb resolution from corner to corner over the whole zoom range. As is the case with all EF lenses, the aperture is controlled by an EMD (electromagnetic diaphragm), which allows for quick, quiet, and highly precise control. Additionally, the lens incorporates a circular aperture diaphragm, which creates a background blur that is aesthetically pleasing from full aperture to two stops down.
The use of three ultra-low dispersion (UD) glass elements effectively reduces the residual chromatic aberrations that can plague long lenses of lower quality, and the use of aspherical elements corrects the various kinds of aberration that occur during zooming to give the lens the unsurpassed clarity and resolving power that is the hallmark of professional L-series lenses.
