This 144° VR lens allows users to capture realistic-looking images in a wide-angle view, without having to worry about catching unwanted objects (including parts of the camera gear itself). Users can get started taking 3D VR videos by simply attaching this VR lens to the EOS R7*1 camera. It makes 3D VR more accessible by reducing the need for special shooting equipment and preparations. The lens itself weighs just 290g (approx.)*2, making it easy to handle and carry. Its features give photographers greater freedom to choose from a variety of shooting methods — gimbals, tripod, or hand-held.
The optical design is optimized for cameras with APS-C size sensors, and delivers high 4K*3 image quality that enhances the immersive experience of VR. The lens also features a focus/control ring to enhance operability — one of the characteristic features of Canon RF lenses.
*1 As of June 2024, this lens is compatible only with the EOS R7. Use of this lens requires the latest firmware update for the EOS R7.
*2 Weight excludes the rear filter holder.
