The RF28-70mm F2.8 IS STM lens is our new lens that is perfect for both still and video content creators who may have a smaller budget but want high quality. This lens is now the smallest, lightest, RF zoom lens with extremely high image quality (equal that of an L-series lens). For still image creators this light and compact lens weighing in at just over one pound will be a “take anywhere” kind of lens. Offering a fast F2.8 aperture throughout the zoom range, photographers can work in low light situations or take creative control and blur the foreground and background with wide apertures not available on standard kit lenses.

  • Compatible with most Canon EOS R-Series cameras: For use with your existing Canon mirrorless R-Series camera.
  • Standard zoom lens for versatile use: Get the shot you want with this everyday lens that offers a range of focal lengths to meet the majority of your photographic needs.
  • Versatile 28-70mm zoom range: A 28mm-70mm zoom range provides a surprising amount of focal lengths to choose from, perfect for a full day adventure, or even inside the house where you can close up to your favorite subjects!
  • F2.8 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.
  • Compact size and weight for everyday carry: This lens accomplishes the incredible feat of being a fixed aperture zoom lens that you can actually carry around all day without wearing your arm out. One size-reduction feature is the image stabilization unit that has been completely redesigned for this lens. Additionally, the collapsible design and the smaller focus element due to the optical system make the lens lightweight and portable.
  • High-image quality and optical design: There is a lot that contributes to the optical quality of this lens, and it starts with two Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) elements (marked as dark green in diagram). The large-diameter UD lens at the front is a unique configuration previously found only in L lenses.
  • Action: This lens is for more than just still shots, your video adventures and productions will benefit as well. The leadscrew-type STM focusing motor is extremely quiet and the 28mm-70mm zoom range is great for vlogging at home, or filming on the street. Focus breathing is also well controlled with this lens, lending even more professionalism to your productions.
  • Image stabilization: Combining 5.5 stops of in-lens image stabilization with in-body image stabilization achieves a coordinated control of 7.5 stops, making Hand-held shooting in low-light conditions possible. In addition, a tripod can be used with the image stabilization function turned on.
  • Bokeh: Even with a zoom lens, the foreground and background can be blurred softly and significantly. This f/2.8 lens provides rich bokeh at every focal length. The ability to open the aperture also allows for faster shutter speeds, preventing blurring of the subject.
  • Sample images: All provided sample images taken with the Canon EOS R6 Mark II Mirrorless Camera and this lens.

This lens offers up to 5.5 stops* of shake correction for sharp images (up to 7 stops of correction when used on EOS R series cameras with In-Body Image Stabilization), and covers an entire wide-angle zoom range — from 14mm through 35mm — whether you shoot landscapes, videos, or architecture. Plus, optimized coatings to help minimize ghosting. The RF14-35mm F4 L IS USM distinguishes itself by maintaining incredibly high image quality, even at its constant f/4 maximum aperture.

Canon - RF70-200mm F4 L IS USM Telephoto Zoom Lens for EOS R-Series Cameras - White

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.

    Canon RF28-70mm F2.8

    This lens blew me away with how clean it is. The combo with the Canon R8 takes high quality professional photos. The autofocus works wonders and never misses if you got the right camera settings. Glad I bought this as my first RF lens.

    Excellent Lens.

    Lite weight, images are very sharp, and image color is excellent. This lens is equal to or better than the L series lenses by Canon.

    Back to shooting

    Absolutetly great lens for the price. I looked at getting the higher end versions of this lens. Being someone who is just getting back into photography after 10+ years, I'm glad I purchased this one. The quality of this lens on modern digital bodies is soooo much better than some of the more expensive lenses years ago.
