Optics Designed for High-Resolution Sensors

The RF 70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM uses an optical design matched to Canon's high-resolution sensors. 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 34°00′ – 12°00′.

Bright Aperture, Smooth Bokeh

The F2.8 maximum aperture and 9-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 F32.

Fast, Quiet Autofocus

Nano USM combines ring-USM speed with STM smoothness for silent, fast autofocus in stills and video. Closest focus is 0.7m with a maximum magnification of 0.23xx.

Weather Sealed and Stabilised

The lens is sealed against dust and moisture with a fluorine coating on the front element and fitted with optical Image Stabilizer, which combines with in-body IS on EOS R bodies for even steadier handheld shooting. It measures 89.9 x 146.0mm and weighs approximately 1070g, and takes 77mm filters.
