- Macro lens for stunning detail: Bring every detail into view wwiith extreme close-up photos of flowers, insects and small objects.
- 100mm focal length: The Tele-Macro focal length allows you to capture close-ups and fine details even from a distance. It also reduces shadow interference.
- f/2.8 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.
- Optical Image Stabilizer with up to 5 Stops of Shake Correction**: Because RF lenses are designed specifically for the RF Mount, the lens and camera combine to share shooting data, helping to dramatically reduce the effect of camera shake that can occur when using handheld.
- Up to 8 stops of Shake Correction*** with Coordinated Optical Image Stabilizer and In-Body Image Stabilizer: When combined with an EOS R series camera equipped with In-Body Image Stabilizer, the lens' Optical Image Stabilizer teams up with the In-Body IS to provide coordinated IS up to 8 stops***.

The RF70-200mm F4 L IS USM is a telephoto zoom lens delivering impressive image quality along with superb mobility as our shortest and lightest 70-200mm f/4 lens to date. Designed for the EOS R System, this lens takes advantage of the large diameter mount and short back focus distance of the RF mount to maintain high image quality while being more compact and portable so you’ll be even more inclined to take it with you on your travels. Results are stunning thanks to 4 UD lenses which help correct chromatic aberration and keep colors vivid, reduced ghosting provided by Air-Sphere Coating (ASC), and Optical Image Stabilization* plus coordinated Optical Image Stabilizer and In-Body Image Stabilizer** for amazingly clear, crisp images at slow shutter speeds and smooth video footage. There’s also dual Nano USMs contributing to a short minimum focusing distance and high-speed autofocus for still shooting and near-silent, smooth autofocus during movie shooting. These features and more, combined with the confidence to shoot in almost any condition with dust- and weather resistant seals and fluorine coating, make the RF70-200mm F4 L IS USM lens a solid performer for any situation.

Using a single Ultra Low Dispersion lens element towards the front of the lens group corrects chromatic aberration throughout the entire zoom range, making your images look crisp and colorful with minimal color blur. The RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM lens can also accept both the RF1.4x and RF2x tele extenders giving you the effective maximum focal length of 560mm and 800mm respectively.

great macro lens. There are a lot of mixed reviews about this lens due to the cost and complexity of use, but once you learn this lens it really is great for both video and photography. This is a solid lens, and I have no regrets on this purchase. I do highly recommend using this lens with a tripod for best results. watch videos and practice with this lens and you will see why it's a good addition to your collection for macro photography and portrait.

The best macro lens for a beginner
I am not exactly a professional but not exactly a rookie. I have been shooting on Canon for the past year with a 24 to 70 I used the Canon R5C. I have been shooting myself on video for almost 10 years. I have only done a few photo shoots but I love the look of this lens. It does seem to a little more attention to white balance when you are indoors. Some people were saying that the SA controller only changes how soft the image is but when focusing on a subject it does seem to change the depth of field a little bit. Not exactly sure if this is true but it seems like it to me. 100 mm combined with Canon image stabilization and weather sealant makes this lens quite a beast. Add actual macro and the ability to focus on close up objects and you have a real winner here. When I was reading the reviews everyone said this lens was way above the 85 mm macro

The best 100 mm Macro
Excellent quality in manufacturing, the sharpness of the image and the Macro function is of another level, it is not heavy to have a long focal length, it has a stabilization that, combined with the stabilization of the camera, gives incredible results, even if the camera does not have a stabilizer in the sensor, the autofocus works perfectly and the selection of the focus point is perfect, the best thing is the SA control, it creates surprising results, the quality and price ratio is perfect, the Canon L series is of another level. I recommend it 100%.
