Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens

Popular with Wedding and Sports Photographers

One of Canon’s most popular L-Series lenses has finally made its way to the native Canon RF Mount. The Canon RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM is a popular choice for wedding, portrait, sports and event photographers. The combination of its versatile focal range and constant f/2.8 maximum aperture delivers excellent creative potential for a broad range of shooting scenarios.

Smaller and Lighter

The RF 70-200mm is a significant 28% lighter and 27% shorter than the equivalent EF-Mount version, weighing in at 1070g and measuring 146mm at its shortest length. This compact size is a perfect match for the mirrorless system, allowing photographers to travel with more gear and shoot more comfortably.

Superior Detail and Image Quality

Internally, the lens features 17 elements in 13 groups including one Super UD element and four UD elements. Combined, they deliver excellent edge to edge image detail and sharpness across the entire zoom range.

Excellent Colour Reproduction

The lens further bolsters image quality by utilising a SWC (Subwavelength Coating) to significantly reduce ghosting and flare. The end result is improved contrast resulting in better overall depth and colour accuracy in your shot.

Fluorine Coated Front Element

A fluorine coating on the front element acts as the last line of defence against dirt, dust, moisture and fingerprints. The easy to clean surface ensures your front element is not obscured by debris, delivering maximum resolution for every shot.

Dual Nano USM Autofocus System

The autofocus performance of the RF 70-200mm f/2.8 is delivered by an evolutionary Dual Nano USM system. The floating focus control system drives two lens groups individually to deliver a high degree of quietness, improved efficiency and high-speed operation. All without negatively impacting the physical size of the lens itself.

Compatible with Dual Pixel CMOS AF System

The Dual Nano USM system works equally well in photo and video operations. A perfect complement to Canon’s Dual Pixel CMOS AF system, this combination reduces focus breathing when shooting video while also possessing the speed and consistency required by pro sports and action photographers.

Built-in Optical Image Stabilisation (IS)

Canon’s proven Image Stabilisation system further maximises your image sharpness. Especially useful when shooting in low-light environments the IS yields a 5-stop advantage, expanding your creative capabilities when shooting handheld or with slower shutter speeds.

Weather Sealed Construction

Constructed to the same standard as the rest of the Canon L-Series line-up the RF 70-200mm f/2.8L IS USM Lens is weather sealed to resist dust and moisture, providing professional photographers with the confidence to keep shooting, even then the weather takes a turn.
