The Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8 L IS USM is the lightest and most compact of all Canon 70-200mm f/2.8 lenses, designed specifically for the full-frame RF mirrorless system. It offers a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture throughout the zoom range, giving photographers and videographers excellent background separation while maintaining consistent exposure in all lighting conditions.
This L-series telephoto zoom contains one Super UD element, one UD element and two aspherical elements for exceptional sharpness and colour, while 5-stop optical image stabilization and Dual Nano USM autofocus ensure every moment is captured with speed, accuracy and clarity, from wildlife to weddings.
Key Features
- Constant f/2.8 aperture: Maintains bright, consistent exposure and beautiful bokeh thanks to the 9-blade circular diaphragm, right across the 70 to 200mm zoom range.
- 5-stop optical image stabilization: Three switchable IS modes – standard, panning and stabilization during exposure only – greatly reduce camera shake and keep handheld shots sharp in low light.
- Dual Nano USM autofocus: Combines a Ring USM motor with an STM motor for fast, near-silent autofocus that excels for both stills and video, with full manual focus override available in One-Shot AF.
- Advanced optical construction: Super UD and UD elements eliminate chromatic aberration and colour fringing, while Air Sphere and Fluorine coatings reduce flare, ghosting and surface contamination.
- Customisable control ring: The reprogrammable ring lets you adjust aperture, ISO or exposure compensation directly on the lens for an intuitive, distraction-free shooting experience.
- Sealed, travel-friendly body: L-series dust and moisture resistant construction that withstands vibration and shock, supplied with a detachable, rotating tripod collar for flexible studio and field use.
