What lens mount is on a Canon T2i?

EF lens mount
The Canon EOS 550D / T2i employs an EF lens mount and is fully compatible with both Canon EF and EF-S lenses. Thanks to its APS-C sensor size, all lenses effectively have their field of view reduced by 1.6 times. The EOS 550D / T2i is available as a body alone or in a choice of kits with stabilised zoom lenses.

What’s the widest Canon lens?

8L II USM. The widest prime lens in the Canon catalogue is a real gem: the EF 14mm f2. 8L II USM, now in an improved Mark II version, delivers ultra-wide coverage without any of the distortion of a fisheye.

Is Canon T2i a full frame camera?

The sub-frame sensor on the Canon Rebel T2i means that it has a smaller angle of view (by a factor of 1/1.6) than a full-frame camera with any given lens. While most properly called a “crop factor,” the 1.6x ratio is more commonly referred to as the “focal length multiplier” since that’s how it works in practice.

Is 18 55mm a wide-angle lens?

While technically not a wide-angle lens, 18-55mm lenses allow you to shoot wide-angle by using the shortest focal length (18mm) and playing around with shooting angles and composition techniques.

Is a 24mm lens a wide-angle?

On a full-frame camera, any lens with a focal length of 35mm or wider is considered a wide angle lens, while 24mm and wider is considered an ultra-wide angle lens.

How old is a Canon T2i?

The Canon EOS Rebel T2i shipped from February 2010, with kit pricing set at US$899, including the same EF-S 18-55mm f/3.5-5.6 IS kit lens that previously shipped with the T1i.

Is 18mm considered wide angle?

Generally, 18mm is considered wide-angle, but it depends on the size of the sensor. A DSLR camera with an 18mm lens WOULD take wide-angle shots, but if you have a compact digital camera or a cameraphone, where the sensor can be really tiny, an 18mm lens would look more like a 50mm lens or longer does on a DSLR.

Is 18mm considered wide-angle lens?

The wide angle focal lengths you listed from Wikipedia are essentially correct for 35mm film and full frame digital cameras, so yes, your kit lens is considered a wide angle at the 18mm end (the equivalent of roughly a 28mm “standard” wide angle lens).

Do I really need a wide-angle lens?

Wide angle lenses are generally used for scenes where you want to capture as much as possible. Landscapes, cityscapes, and architecture are the main categories that use a wide angle lens. A fish-eye lens captures even more of the scene but is mainly used for artistic and creative purposes.
