Built-in Macro Lite

The EF-M 28MM f/3.5 Macro IS STM lens features a built-in Macro Lite which allows you to bring the lens as close as you need without compromising on light. Used to illuminate small objects up close, it can be controlled by a switch, letting you change the lighting intensity and direction on one or both sides of the Macro Lite, allowing you to create dramatic lighting, while the design reduces shadows cast by both the camera and lens
