Canon RF 5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye: Stereoscopic 180° VR Capture on One Camera

A prime camera lens for Canon RF mount with an F2.8 maximum aperture, 5mm on full frame, weighing 350g. It is weather sealed, and built to resolve the detail of Canon's latest sensors.

Who Is This Made For?

The RF 5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye is for creators making immersive VR and 3D content for headsets and spatial video platforms, using a single EOS R body. It is small enough to leave on the camera all day, and its F2.8 maximum aperture gives plenty of light for evenings and interiors.

Optics Designed for High-Resolution Sensors

The RF 5.2mm F2.8 L Dual Fisheye uses 12 elements in 10 groups. As an L-series lens it carries Canon's best glass, with UD and aspherical elements to control aberrations and Air Sphere or Super Spectra coatings against flare. The diagonal angle of view is 190°00′.

Two Lenses, One Sensor, Instant 3D

Twin fisheye optics project a stereoscopic pair onto a single sensor, so VR and 3D content is captured in one file with perfect sync and no rig. Canon's EOS VR Utility and plug-ins convert the footage for headsets and spatial video platforms.

Bright Aperture, Smooth Bokeh

The F2.8 maximum aperture and 7-blade circular diaphragm produce smooth background blur and clean specular highlights. The RF control ring can be assigned to aperture, ISO or exposure compensation for direct control. Minimum aperture is F16.

Fast, Quiet Autofocus

A stepping motor delivers smooth, quiet autofocus suited to stills and video. Closest focus is 0.2m with a maximum magnification of 0.03xx.

Weather Sealed

The lens is sealed against dust and moisture with a fluorine coating on the front element. It measures 121.1 × 83.6 x 53.5mm and weighs approximately 350g, and uses a rear gel filter holder.
