Native lenses to the EOS R system, RF lenses are built on the strengths of the EF system. The RF mount has a larger diameter, which allows wider lens elements are placed closer to the sensor. This reduces light refraction and aberrations resulting in higher image quality.
A 12-pin connection between the camera and lens means communication at a higher speed with larger amounts of data transfer, enabling incredibly fast AF, high IS and image optimisation. It’s a system designed to expedite operations that’s ready for future expansions.
The greatest advantages lies in how just one lens can cover a focal length from wide-angle to telephoto.
Ultra-wide angle lenses capture a field-of-view that is wider than what the human eye can see. Such lenses also emphasise perspectives, making nearby objects appear bigger and faraway objects appear smaller.
Macro lenses are especially useful when photographing objects in extreme close-up to create the ‘larger-than-life’ effect.
Best for photographing everyday situations, standard lenses reproduce an angle of view that is closest to what the human eye sees, giving you the most natural perspective of your subjects.
Especially useful for photographers who capture subjects that are faraway such as wildlife, sports or concerts by “pulling in” and filling the frame with your faraway subjects.
Expand the possibilities of the EOS R System with EF-EOS R mount adapters. By attaching the mount adapter to an RF mount camera body, you can use any lens in Canon’s EF and EF-S lens* line up.
*Except EF-M and Cinema EOS lenses
Extend the focal length of your super telephoto lenses by attaching an extender to your RF mount camera.
