Canon goes far and wide with new RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 and 16mm F2.8 lenses

$(document). ready(function() { SampleGalleryV2({"containerId":"embeddedSampleGallery_8773002505","galleryId":"8773002505","isEmbeddedWidget":true,"selectedImageIndex":0,"isMobile":false}) }); Canon has announced a pair of 'budget friendly' lenses – one telephoto and one wide – for its RF mount.

The RF 100-400mm F5. 6-8 IS USM is similar in spirit to the RF 600mm F11 and RF 800mm F11 in that it's very affordable and quite portable given its focal length range, with a slow maximum aperture being the main tradeoff. The 100-400 measures just 165 x 80mm (6. 5 x 3. 1 in. ) in size and weighs 630 g (22. 4 oz. ).

The lens' built-in optical stabilization can reduce shake by up to 5. 5 stops (per CIPA standard) and this increases by another half-stop when mounted on an R-series body with IBIS. Optically, it's made up of 12 elements, including UD (ultra-low dispersion) and aspherical glass, and features Super Spectra Coating to reduce flare and ghosting. The focus group is driven by a linear-type Nano USM motor for swift and silent autofocus.

The minimum focus distance is 88cm (35") and the maximum magnification is 0. 41x. If 100-400mm isn't enough for you, this lens is compatible with Canon's 1. 4x and 2x teleconverters, with a commensurate further decrease in maximum aperture that may affect the camera's ability to autofocus.

The RF 100-400mm F5. 6-8 IS USM will be available this month for $649.

The second new lens is the RF 16mm F2. 8 STM, which becomes Canon's most affordable ultra-wide lens at $299. It's also extremely compact at just 40 x 69mm (1. 6 x 2. 7 in. ) in size and 165g (5. 8oz) in weight. It has 9 elements, one of which is aspherical, along with a Super Spectra Coating to combat flare and ghosting. A stepping motor drives the focus group.

The 16mm F2. 8 can focus as close as 13cm (5. 1") and has a maximum magnification of 0. 26x.

As with the 100-400mm, you'll be able to pick up the 16mm F2. 8 STM later this month. The lens is priced at $299.

Both lenses invite current EOS R series users and those who are considering a move to Canon’s prominent mirrorless system, such as the EOS R or EOS RP, to expand their content creation abilities with the visual drama of an ultra-wide-angle lens and true telephoto-only zoom lens. As the “lens first” EOS R series continues to expand, these latest lenses open the door to a wide-range of imaging creators, encouraging them to test the powers and possibilities of their art.

Ultra-Wide Perspectives

Whether you are excited to start exploring the creative world of ultra wide-angle photography or someone who is looking to add another lens to expand your imaging offerings, the Canon RF16mm F2. 8 STM is compact, lightweight and affordable. Long gone are the days of optical corrections or sharpness challenges – the new ultra-wide, 16mm RF lens, for full-frame cameras, comes with a fast and bright f/2. 8 maximum lens aperture, as well as smooth and brisk AF (autofocus). This lens is a strong addition to the landscape, architecture or travel photographer — but it also provides the vlogging creator and the EOS Webcam Utility software user the power to integrate environments into their imagery, with its super-wide coverage.

Additional features of Canon’s new ultra wide-angle prime lens with 16mm focal length F2. 8 include:

Lensrentals tears down the Canon 600mm F11 IS STM

Roger and Aaron of Lensrentals are back with a new lens teardown, the Canon 600mm F11 IS STM. While it’s not the lens Roger usually goes for (he’s a self-proclaimed connoisseur of ‘high-priced wide-aperture lenses’), this lens fills a niche in the photography world and both Roger and Aaron were interested to see how exactly Canon packs a 600mm focal length into a compact body that weighs just 2lbs. dpreview.com »
