Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens
Canon’s lightest and shortest 70-200mm f/2.8
The RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM has been designed to achieve the much-loved 70-200mm zoom range in just 146mm (at its shortest length). This makes the lens approximately 27% shorter and 28% lighter than its EF equivalent. An essential workhorse lens, this lens is perfect for travel, wildlife, news, and sport.
Outstanding image quality
Thanks to the large-diameter RF mount and short back focus design and incredibly bright f/2.8 maximum aperture- that stays constant throughout the zoom- the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM offers great creative opportunities and stunning image quality, even in low light. The lens is engineered to deliver sharp images with beautiful background blur.
Intuitive control at your fingertips
The RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM features a lens control ring for customizable control over shutter speed, ISO, or exposure compensation. The easy-to-identify textured surface gives you tangible feedback to adjust while looking through the viewfinder and concentrating on your subject.
Steady shots hand-held or in low light
Shoot with confidence even when light levels drop. The RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM is designed to work in conjunction with an EOS R series camera, with both the camera and the lens sharing data to reduce camera-shake blur. With up to 5 stops of Image Stabilization, it delivers impressively clear results when shooting handheld.
Responsive performance
Stay discreet and in control thanks to rapid focusing from two high-performance Nano USM motors that ensure the lens locks onto a subject, so you’ll never miss a moment. It brings rapid and silent continuous focusing, perfect for stills or video.
Built with the legendary L-series durability
The RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM has been carefully crafted with weather-sealing and fluorine coatings on the front and rear elements to guard against water drops and dust, helping keep this powerful lens safeguarded wherever you go. Confidently shoot in all conditions.
