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.
When paired with an EOS R-mount camera that is equipped with In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS), the Coordinated IS provides an shake correction effect of 8 stops at the center, and 8 stops in the corners. ²
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.
