Tell your story with 3D depth with the growth of the VR headset market, there is an excellent opportunity for Content creators to create CAMERA-CAPTURED content, and to expand their audience by creating 3D experiences with a level of 3D immersion not possible with traditional flat 2-dimensional content. And now you can capture and share your adventures, your daily explorations, memories and powerful portraits using this new Canon stereoscopic lens without spending thousands to make it a reality.
- Canon RF mount: Compatible with all Canon EOS R-Series Cameras with the Canon RF Mount.
- f/4 maximum aperture: Creates sharp, detailed images with shallow depth of field and softly blurred background. Performs best in moderate-to-bright light settings or outdoors on overcast days.
- Simple, straight path optics: Canon was the first to offer a high-resolution single sensor solution for creating VR content with the RF-5.2mm F2.8 L DUAL FISHEYE lens, and it was no small feat. In order to get so many high-quality lenses into a compact body, and ensure the final image was directed to one image sensor, a folded optical path with prisms was used. This is an elegant and effective solution, but not a low cost one.
- VR with Ease: Pairing just this one lens to an EOS R7 (firmware 1.5.0+) camera provides the capability of delivering a single file — creating a powerful and convenient solution compared to traditional VR systems which capture a 3D scene with two separate fisheye lenses, recording that imagery to two separate cameras or image sensors, which write two files.
- Canon's EOS VR System: Canon's EOS VR System is expanding and you now multiple options of camera and lens combinations, but let’s not forget the third tripod leg of the EOS VR system, which is the software. The EOS VR Software Applications — The EOS VR Utility and EOS VR Plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro. This is our first lens to offer “Spatial” video as well as traditional 3D files, and the EOS VR Utility will be able to output those formats.
- EOS VR Utility and EOS VR Plugin: Canon's subscription-based software solutions are an integral part of Canon's EOS VR System and have been updated to support the new RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens — The EOS VR Utility, a standalone software application, and the EOS VR Plug-in for Adobe Premiere Pro allow two different workflow experiences for VR creators and studios. EOS VR Utility allows for output of multiple formats like 3D 180°, 3D Theater, 8:9, 16:9, full capture, and Spatial (1:1) video.
- 60° field of view and an interpupillary distance of 11.8mm: This lens is designed specifically to deliver outstanding stereoscopic 3D imagery. Featuring dual 7.8mm lenses positioned with 11.8mm of spacing between Left and Right Lens centers, it provides an interpupillary distance closely resembling human vision with a natural parallax for a powerful, immersive experience that brings the viewer to feel they are within the scene where the video or still image takes place.
- Auto focusing: Featuring a gear-type stepping motor (STM) with a dual-lens autofocus mechanism, which drives the left and right lenses in unison. This makes AF as simple to operate as with an ordinary RF lens. One feature of RF lenses that enhances operability is the electronic focusing/control ring. The left-right focus differential can be adjusted using the focusing/control ring and the left-right focus difference adjustment mode switch.
- aperture of f/4 to a deep depth of field of f/16: The RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL Lens is designed with dual optical systems with coordinated electronically controlled apertures. These provide a highly adaptable aperture range — allowing you to go from an f/4 aperture, to a deep depth of field of f/16 for more control of your exposure in brighter environments. Additionally, since both lenses are contained in a standard lens housing, it has a 58mm front screw thread for filters.
- Camera firmware: To help improve the user experience with the uniqueness of shooting with the RF-S7.8mm F4 STM DUAL lens, special features have been added to the firmware to optimize VR shooting. This firmware provides metadata information for the software to convert the image from fisheye to equirectangular.
- Canon Camera Connect and EOS Utility: For shooting remotely, the ability to monitor with features such as the "Magic Window" overlay, left/right lens viewing swap, and fisheye to equirectangular preview is available in the Canon Camera Connect app or when using EOS Utility software, making it easy to remotely view and record content.

Make your Story more immersive with the RF-S3.9mm F3.5 STM DUAL FISHEYE lens. As the newest member to the EOS VR System — this lens paired with the EOS R7 (firmware 1.5.0+) and one of Canon's VR software solutions — you can create immersive 3D that can be experienced when viewed on compatible head mount displays including the Oculus Quest 2 and others.* Viewers will be able to take in the scene with vivid, engaging images by simply moving their head. This lens was designed with APS-C sensors in mind, and carries on the tradition of its big brother (RF-5.2mm F2.8 L DUAL FISHEYE) of lenses that can capture stereoscopic 3D 180° VR imagery to a single image sensor. A new way to create VR content, in every way. Canon was the first to offer a high-resolution single sensor solution to creating VR content with the RF-5.2mm F2.8 L DUAL FISHEYE lens and the EOS R5 C camera. Being the first, naturally we had more time to study how people create VR content and find a way to offer the best of what people loved about that first lens at a reasonable price. At the same time, we wanted to address some of the issues that make compact 180º cameras difficult to use. The solution was to focus on affordable APS-C sensor cameras and build the system around that. This resulted in a high-quality, feature-rich lens that is compatible with an APS-C camera, is reasonably priced, and even the compatible VR software has been updated for a better workflow. Welcome to affordable high-quality VR content creation! With this lens paired with an EOS R7(firmware 1.5.0+) camera, creatives, industry professionals and newcomers to VR can create an immersive experience, capturing dynamic scenes for entertainment, tourism, training & education, real estate, storytelling or anywhere you want to bring your audience to.
Compact, versatile, speedy and affordable, the new RF16mm F2.8 STM lens is a terrific complement to any EOS R series digital camera. Offering an ultra-wide angle of view and a bright f/2.8 aperture, it's an excellent choice whether taking interior photos in tight spaces, seeking out the perfect landscape, or as the perfect webcam lens when used in combination with an EOS camera and EOS Webcam Utility on a video call. With a 16mm F2.8 lens, you can experiment with enhancing perspectives, capturing starscapes, or with the close focusing distance of 5.11 inches, get up close to your subject while still keeping the background more visible. Video users will find this ultra-wide lens a natural for vlogging, especially with its supremely light weight. With its remarkable combination of optical excellence and refined performance, all in a small package that's easy to bring most anywhere, the RF16mm F2.8 STM is a stellar companion to any EOS R series digital camera.
The RF-S10-18mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM lens combines excellent optics and high performance, providing an ultra-wide angle of view in a compact, portable package, perfect for EOS R cameras with an APS-C sensor. The optical performance is a direct result of a totally new lens design, highlighted by two Ultra-low Dispersion glass elements and an Aspheric element. The RF-S10-18mm F4.5-6.3 IS STM delivers reliable, speedy and quiet wide-angle performance, making it an ideal lens for vlogging, video, travel, landscapes, interiors, or simply for creative imagery.

- Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Excellent Inexpensive and Easy Entry to 3D
This autofocus lens turns the Canon R50 V into a relatively inexpensive and compact 3D video and stills camera that is easy to use, not very different than shooting using normal lenses. The lenses are not fisheye, so there is no distortion in the images. 3D images really pop, for objects relatively close. A limitation is that objects more than two feet in the distance have limited 3D effects. Works with the R7 as well.
