Canon RF 100-400 mm f5.6-8 IS USM MILC Telephoto lens Black

Capture distant wildlife, sports and family adventures with the Canon RF 100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM telephoto lens. This compact telephoto for Canon RF-mount mirrorless cameras offers a powerful 100–400mm reach in a lightweight, portable design with a 12/9 element-group optical construction, Nano USM autofocus and a maximum magnification of 0.41x. Built-in Optical Image Stabilizer provides up to 5.5 stops of stabilization while aspherical and Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) glass with Super Spectra Coating help deliver sharp stills and smooth video.

Advantages

The lens combines long telephoto reach with a compact, lightweight body (0.635 kg, 164.7 mm length), fast and quiet Nano USM autofocus, and a nine-blade circular aperture for pleasing out-of-focus rendering. An advanced 5.5-stop Optical Image Stabilizer reduces camera shake, and the use of aspherical and UD elements with Super Spectra Coating minimises aberrations and flare for clear, detailed images.

Use longer focal lengths for distant subjects, and combine moderate shutter speeds with the built-in IS or a tripod for the sharpest results. For close subjects use the lens’s close-focusing capability down to 0.88 m to achieve up to 0.41x magnification. Set aperture and shutter speed according to subject movement and light conditions; the lens performs for both stills and video recording.
