Crafted for those who desire a professional quality ultra telephoto lens, the RF800mm f/5.6L IS USM is perfect for photographing subjects from a distance like wildlife and sports. Capable of up to 4.5 shutter speed stops of image stabilisation for that tack sharp image while weighing only approximately 3,140g.
Utilising the unique Air Sphere Coating (ASC), the RF800mm f/5.6L IS USM can suppress ghosting by reducing the reflectivity of light entering from a large angle of incidence and vertically.
The RF800mm f/5.6L IS USM can produce superior image quality with minimal colour fringing from edge to edge of the frame using UD and Super UD Lens.
The RF800mm f/5.6L IS USM produces high quality images with minimal chromatic aberration through the use of fluorite lenses.
The elements are arranged in a way that significantly improves image quality. It also allows the lens design to be more compact and lightweight.
Size & Weight Reduction
The RF800mm f/5.6L IS USM is designed to be 29mm shorter and 1,360g lighter than its EF equivalent through new lens design by introducing innovative optics arrangements and a high-strength alloy lens barrel.
The built-in Optical Image Stabilizer (Optical IS) provides image stabilisation of up to 4.5 shutter speed stops. The Optical IS enables shots previously not possible handheld, ensuring tack sharp images even when shooting in low-light.
High-speed continuous shooting of up to 30fps is supported when paired with compatible EOS R cameras using the electronic shutter.
Aperture control of 1/8 step provides smooth, gradual transitions from dark areas to bright areas.
