Canon 5055C008 - RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM
Powerful reach, unparalleled portability
Relatively compact despite its super-telephoto reach, the Canon RF 800mm f/5.6 L IS USM is an impressive prime lens combining top-tier performance with a modernised compact and lightweight design. Ideal for sports, wildlife and press applications, this long lens offers a distinctly narrow field of view to isolate distant subjects, along with responsive autofocus and image stabilisation, reliable weather protection and intuitive handling for dependable use in dynamic situations.
L-series optics
- Featuring an optical design based on previous EF and RF super-telephoto lenses, this lens presents top-tier optics designed for the most demanding shooting applications.
- Two fluorite elements, one Super UD (Ultra-low Dispersion) element and one UD element virtually eliminate chromatic aberrations for exceptional clarity and colour fidelity, free from chromatic aberrations and fringing.
- The advanced optical design also contributes to this RF mirrorless camera lens's more streamlined and portable format.
- Air Sphere and Super Spectra coatings improve image quality by maintaining high contrast and colour fidelity while reducing flare and ghosting when shooting in bright lighting conditions.
- The nine-blade rounded aperture diaphragm contributes to smooth bokeh quality.
USM autofocus and image stabilisation
- The ultrasonic motor delivers fast, accurate and near-silent autofocus performance for both photo and video applications.
- An impressive minimum focus distance of 2.6 m and a maximum magnification of 0.34x are well suited to working with close subjects, such as wildlife, birds and athletes at short range.
- Variable-speed manual focus offers three options for greater focus control, and support for full-time manual focus allows focus adjustments without changing mode.
- Two focus presets can be saved for instant recall at a specified focus distance.
- The focus range limiter improves responsiveness by restricting the usable focus range.
- Benefiting from handheld and monopod shooting, the optical image stabilisation compensates for 4.5 stops of camera shake for sharper images. Due to the long focal length, in-body image stabilisation, or coordinated IS, of EOS R series bodies is not supported with this lens.
Intuitive handling and professional reliability
- Relatively light and compact, this 800mm f/5.6 lens weighs 3.14 kg and measures 43.2 cm in length, making handheld use on a monopod or even freehand realistic for short periods.
- The integrated rotating tripod collar is suited for working with the lens on a monopod or tripod and allows quick switching between portrait and landscape orientations.
- Weather-sealed design for reliable use in challenging weather conditions.
- The fluorine coating on the front element helps repel moisture, dust and fingerprints and is also easier to clean.
- Distinctive heat-resistant white finish.
- Accepts 52 mm drop-in filters at the rear of the lens.
- Compatible with optional Extender RF 1.4x and 2x teleconverters to further extend the effective reach of this lens.
