Canon - RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for EOS R-Series Cameras - White

Great reach, much lighter than my 150-600mm Sigma, fast autofocus, very sharp pictures. Only complaint is the Tripod collar doesn't completely lock down, it gives a little. A bit too pricey, also.

Fantastic wildlife lens. Even handheld on an R5C without IBIS, the images are sharp at 500mm. I do wish it reached 600mm, but the 1.4x teleconverter works great, and with good lighting it still delivers super-sharp results. Fast autofocus, strong stabilization, and surprisingly lightweight. Excellent for bird photography.

The Canon RF 100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens is an absolute game-changer for wildlife and sports photography enthusiasts. Its build quality, hallmark of Canon’s L-series, is both durable and lightweight, making it perfect for photographers on the go. The lens extends its reach to an incredible 500mm while still maintaining sharpness and image clarity throughout the zoom range. The image stabilization (IS) on this lens is nothing short of spectacular. Even at the extreme telephoto range, handheld shots come out crisp and stable, thanks to its 5-stop IS system. Paired with a Canon EOS R series camera, the lens performs brilliantly, delivering fast autofocus and exceptional accuracy, making it a reliable tool for tracking fast-moving subjects like birds or athletes. Despite its relatively modest maximum aperture, this lens still provides beautiful background blur, creating stunning subject isolation. The zoom ring operates smoothly, and the lens’s overall ergonomics are spot-on, making long shoots more comfortable. Plus, its weather-sealing ensures peace of mind when shooting in unpredictable outdoor conditions. The Canon RF 100-500mm’s versatility, combined with its impressive optical performance, makes it one of the best telephoto zoom lenses on the market for anyone looking to capture action from a distance. Whether you're shooting wildlife, sports, or even distant landscapes, this lens is a must-have addition to your kit.

Great lens for wildlife photography. Works excellent with video and stills. Relatively light weight with great stabilization. Would highly recommend.
