Some items like your keys or wallet you just take everywhere you go because you just never know. For anyone with an EOS R series camera, add the RF50mm F1.8 STM lens to that list. As part of the EOS R System, it’s nice and compact thanks to its RF mount so you can shoot – and get a great shot – anywhere and anytime. Size isn’t all though. As a fixed focal length lens, it lets you be creative with composition and can be used for a wide range of scenes from snapshots to portraits, landscapes to low-light situations and more. Those images will stand out, too, just like you intend whether on social media, or when sharing or printing, thanks to impressive optical features like a PMo aspherical lens to suppress aberrations, Super Spectra coating to reduce flaring and ghosting, and a large f/1.8 aperture for low-light shooting and beautiful bokeh. Pick it up and use it one time and you’ll see for yourself, and you won’t be able to leave the house without it.See all Mirrorless Prime LensesTop comment"The nifty 50.

Canon - RF28mm F2.8 STM Wide-Angle Prime Lens for EOS R-Series Cameras - Black
Model: 6128C002SKU: 6546140Top comment"Nice little lens...I just got this lens for my r50 because of the compact size and pairs well with the smaller body if the r5o, excellent lens great image quality. ...Best pancake lense...High quality image.

See all customer reviewsSee all Mirrorless Prime LensesProduct Description
RF28mm F2.8 STM lens is a super-compact, wide-angle lens great for travel, street photography, and video and is a great entry point for full frame EOS R cameras. Great for still photography and videography, 28mm has been the starting point for getting a wide-angle “look” in pictures and video for decades — wide enough on a full-frame camera, to have a distinct wide-angle character, and yet not so wide that it becomes a challenge to use. This lens absolutely can also be used with APS-C sensor EOS R-series cameras, like the EOS R7, R10, and R50. Its super-compact design combines beautifully with them, and on an APS-C sensor, it provides coverage equal to a standard 45mm lens. Its super-flat design belies the fact that this lens delivers 28mm wide-angle coverage on full frame cameras, along with an f/2.8 maximum aperture. The lens’s minimum focus distance is approximately 9 inches; it accepts 55mm filters, and with the incredibly small front lens element, it uses an optional, dedicated Canon screw-in lens hood EW-55. This compact 28mm RF lens is worth checking out, even if you already own other wide-angle lenses, and carries an attractive price, putting it within reach of many Canon EOS R-series users.Top comment"Nice little lens...I just got this lens for my r50 because of the compact size and pairs well with the smaller body if the r5o, excellent lens great image quality. ...Best pancake lense...High quality image.

Canon - RF50mm F1.4 L VCM Hybrid Prime Lens for Use with EOS R-Series Cameras - Black
Model: 6908C002SKU: 6605877Top comment"The end result is what matters and the clarity and sharpness of this lens is unlike anything I’ve ever had with a lens. ...Amazing lens...An amazing lens for videography and somewhat wide shots. Great auto focus mechanics."
See all customer reviewsSee all Mirrorless Prime LensesProduct Description
The RF50mm F1.4 L VCM is part of the expanding Hybrid lens series, targeting a wide range of still-image and video shooters, with a combination of wide-angle coverage, a fast f/1.4 maximum aperture, and excellent image quality. On a full frame camera this lens gives you a Standard-angle look which has for decades been the most "all-purpose" focal length for photos and videos. On the video side, this lens really shines with a dedicated manual Iris ring, and a linear focus motor called a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) that is virtually silent. The VCM works in tandem with a Nano USM (Ultrasonic Motor) on the floating focus unit for incredibly fast autofocus. And finally, focus breathing is barely noticeable on this incredibly versatile lens, minimizing distractions for your viewer, and keeping your imagery and story as the priority.Top comment"The end result is what matters and the clarity and sharpness of this lens is unlike anything I’ve ever had with a lens. ...Amazing lens...An amazing lens for videography and somewhat wide shots.
