Customers are saying

Customers highly value the RF100-500mm lens for its excellent image quality, lightweight design, and fast focus speed, making it easy to carry and use in various situations. The reach and versatility of the lens are also appreciated by users. However, some customers find the price to be a bit high, and a few wish the zoom mechanism was different and have commented on the narrow aperture.

    Frim the box this lens has had focusing issues. Results are very soft images. Sent to canon, who claimed its because of the filter i out on the lens (high quality well known brand of filter). Remived the filter an contine to have issues. Lens loses focus and images regardless are soft. Sent back to canon that now acknlowedges the problem and wants to charge me a minimim it $600 to fix it.

    If you’re looking for a great telephoto lens that won’t break the bank this is it. I found this to be far better than the 800 mm RF or the 600 mm or RF. Although it doesn’t give you the same length it is an L glass lens with a greater ability when it comes to auto focus and sharpness. Well worth the money!!
