Bright f/2.8 Aperture Standard Zoom RF L Lens - With a constant f/2.8 maximum aperture, 21 elements in 15 groups, and a 9-blade aperture system, The RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens is engineered to deliver sharp and stunning images with gorgeous background blur and remarkable consistency – ideal for portrait photography.
Optical Image Stabilization of up to 5 Stops* of Shake Correction - The RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM is Canon's first 24-70mm F2.8 lens with Optical Image Stabilization for full-frame cameras, designed for the EOS R series. The camera and lens share data to significantly reduce camera-shake blur in both video and stills, offering up to 5 stops* of stabilization for clear results.
High Speed, Smooth, and Quiet Auto Focus with Nano USM - The RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens is equipped with Canon's NANO USM system, which features a diminutive chip-shaped ultrasonic motor that's engineered to help deliver high-speed, smooth, precise and near-silent operation, during still image AF and smooth movie AF.
Minimum Focusing Distance of 0.69 ft./0.21m (wide), 1.25 ft./0.38m (tele) - With a zoom range that can cover a minimum focusing distance at 0.69 ft./0.21m (wide), 1.25 ft./0.38m (telephoto), and a maximum magnification of approx. 0.30x* the RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens offers amazing versatility with just the turn of a zoom ring. The RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens is capable of capturing sharp and detailed images from nearly any distance.
Control Ring for Direct Setting Changes - The RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens features an independent control ring at the front, allowing immediate exposure adjustments during shooting. It enables direct adjustment of settings like shutter speed, aperture, and exposure compensation. The clicking mechanism of the control ring can be made silent by a Canon service provider for a fee, catering to those preferring quieter operation.
High-speed Communication with the Camera - Designed to quickly process data, the RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens features the 12-pin communication system inherent in all RF lenses. This accelerates AF, Image Stabilization, the Digital Lens Optimizer, and more, helping to simplify complex operations and provide a quick and reliable user experience.
Lens Information Display - As part of the EOS R system, the RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens works with an EOS R series camera to display the lens information right in the viewfinder – making it easy to confirm the lens's focal length without looking away from the subject at hand.
In-camera Digital Lens Optimizer - The EOS R system's 12-pin communication system enables the Digital Lens Optimizer, which works in-camera to combat aberrations and image deterioration, especially in the edges of the image frame when shooting at a large aperture. Data from the RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens is transferred automatically to the camera body, facilitating near-immediate correction for clear, detailed images.
Three Aspherical Elements and Three UD Elements - Taking advantage of the RF mount, the RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens offers incredible optical quality and an exceedingly bright f/2.8 maximum aperture. It features 3 aspheric lenses for high image quality from center to corner and 3 UD lenses that help reduce aberrations for minimized distortion throughout the image plane.
Air Sphere Coating (ASC) Minimizes Lens Flare and Ghosting - The RF 24–70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens features Canon's Air Sphere Coating (ASC), which significantly reduces the occurrence of lens flare and ghosting regardless of focal length or the angle of light. This helps provide clean results with minimal distractions and aberrations.
Dust- and Weather-resistant - For reliable performance even when weather conditions get difficult, the RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens features a dust- and weather-resistant construction in the lens mount, switch panel, and all rings. Sealing is applied to lens joining sections, and switch panels to help prevent water and dust from entering into the lens.
Fluorine Coating - The RF 24-70mm F2.8 L IS USM lens features fluorine coatings on the front and rear surfaces to help prevent dirt and dust from sticking to the lens, making it easy to clean smudges and fingerprints off.
