- Minimum Focal Length: 20 millimeters (The minimum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The shorter the focal length, the greater the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Focal Length: 50 millimeters (The maximum distance between the lens and the image sensor that allows the subject to be in focus. The greater the focal length, the smaller the area of scene captured.)
- Maximum Aperture: f/2.8 (The limit to how wide a lens can be open, typically expressed in f-numbers. The smaller the number, the larger the aperture and the more light that can enter the lens. A larger aperture creates a shallower depth of field, helpful for keeping subjects in focus and blurring background details.)

The RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ lens is the first full frame, switchable power zoom/manual zoom lens from Canon. It combines excellent optics and high performance, providing a wide angle of view in a powerfully versatile lens. The L-series optical performance is highlighted by two Aspheric elements, and three Ultra-low Dispersion glass elements. The RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ delivers incredible hybrid flexibility, high-speed and quiet focusing, ultra-wide-angle performance, in a compact and lightweight design, making it an ideal lens for video and still creators.
- Standard-angle Zoom: The RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ lens’ ultra-wide to standard-angle coverage is ideal for getting everything you want into your scene, and still being able to zoom-in for details and close-ups. This zoom range is also convenient for shooting on-the-go, and in tight spaces.
- The Power to Zoom: The RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ lens features internal Power Zoom, delivering smooth, variable-speed zooming without extra accessories. It can be controlled via the lens ring, camera zoom levers on models like the EOS R6 V, or remotely through the Canon Camera Connect app & Bluetooth remotes. Uniquely, it also offers a manual mode for traditional operation. This versatility ensures professional results whether you are operating the camera by hand or controlling it from a distance.
- Outstanding image quality: The RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ features 3 UD elements, and 2 aspherical lenses which achieves high image quality throughout the image from center to the edges while maintaining compactness. The f/4 aperture remains constant throughout the zoom range, making beautiful imagery possible at any focal length throughout its’ 20-50mm range. For reducing ghosting and flare this lens includes Air Sphere Coating (ASC).
- Get up close: Capture subjects in detail with a maximum magnification of 0.33x (at 50mm) focusing down to 9.4 inches. This enables rich, expressive close-up imagery all from a hybrid lens.
- Optical Image Stabilization — Up to 6.0 stops* ¹ of Shake Correction: To shoot with less blur even without a tripod handy, the RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ features built-in Optical Image Stabilization, providing up to 6.0 stops ¹ of shake reduction ideal for indoor, or low light shooting.
- High-speed, smooth and quiet autofocus and zooming: The lens features three Canon developed USM motors for quiet, fast, and smooth operation. Two USMs are dedicated to moving the lens groups for zooming, and one is dedicated entirely to focusing. These motors are incredibly small, but produce powerful torque, all while remaining virtually silent.
- Compact and lightweight: Coming in under a pound (0.9 lbs / 420 grams) the RF20-50mm F4 L IS USM PZ is powerfully lightweight and compact, especially for a lens with a power zooming function built-in!
- Canon RF Mount: Compatible with all cameras with the Canon RF mount.
- 20-50mm focal length: Provides perfect control over depth of field.

Photograph with clarity, speed and precision by using this 24-105mm Canon zoom lens. The refined, lightweight design attaches easily, while the broad zoom range and optical image stabilization let you capture quality images indoors and out. The fluorine coating protects this Canon zoom lens from dust and water to ensure durability.

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.

Perfect for wildlife, sports, travel and more, the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM is a compact, lightweight telephoto lens for EOS R Series cameras, offering a versatile zoom range that brings subjects closer with ease. The RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM is similar in size to the EF 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 IS II USM lens, and not only reaches to 400mm, but also has fast Nano USM focusing and up to 6 stops of Coordinated IS when used in combination with an EOS R series camera featuring In-body Image Stabilization, like the EOS R5 and EOS R6, or 5.5 stops with an EOS R/RP camera. 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. With a control ring that allows for quick setting changes, including shutter speed and aperture, the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM lens puts quality, convenience and control in your hands.
