Designed for architectural photography, the TS-E 17 MM F/4L features low distortion and excellent edge-to-edge sharpness. Independent rotation of the Tilt and Shift mechanisms ensures versatility.

- Ultra wide 17mm Tilt and Shift lens
- Low distortion and high resolution
- ± 6.5° Tilt and ±12mm Shift
- Independent Tilt or Shift rotation
- Aspherical and UD lens elements
- Sub wavelength structure and super spectra coatings
- Circular aperture

Expanding the possibilities for Tilt and Shift photography
- The TS-E 17 MM F/4L is an ultra-wide angle tilt and shift lens, providing wide-angle views for both APS-C and full frame sensors. Thanks to Canon’s unique rotation system, tilt and shift direction can be rotated independently of each other. This allows perspective and depth of field to be controlled separately - enhancing the flexibility of the lens.

Wide range of movement
- With a 104° diagonal field of view combined with ±6.5° of tilt, plus ±12mm shift and ±90° of rotation on both the tilt and the shift mechanisms, the TS-E 17 MM F/4L is one of the most flexible lenses on the market. The TS-E 17 MM F/4L also features locks on the tilt and shift mechanisms to ensure that unwanted movements are avoided.

High Precision lens elements
- To achieve outstanding edge-to-edge resolution and low distortion, a high-precision, large diameter moulded glass aspherical lens is used. Chromatic aberration - common in wide-angle shooting – is combated by four UD elements. These features make the lens especially suited to architectural photography.

Sub-wavelength structure coating
- Designed for use in digital photography, Canon’s patented lens element coating helps minimise the ghosting and flare caused by internal reflection- helping to deliver crisp, clear images.

Robust build quality
- Canon L series lenses are built to withstand regular use in the most testing environments. Weather and dust seals provide added protection, and a lens hood and pouch are also included in the package.

Lead-free optics
- Environmentally friendly lead-free glass is used throughout the construction of the TS-E 17 MM F/4L.
