Collector Notes:

Produced in the late 1990s, this version of the 28–80mm lens was often bundled with entry-level EOS film bodies. It’s part of Canon’s effort to offer affordable, lightweight zooms with improved autofocus performance. While not an “L” series lens, it’s a reliable performer for casual shooting and a great match for vintage EOS bodies like the Rebel G, EOS 500N, or even early digital models like the 300D.
