Canon RF 85mm f2 Macro IS STM Lens
The Canon RF 85mm f2 Macro IS STM Lens is a versatile, compact prime lens designed for the Canon EOS R full-frame mirrorless system. Combining the classic, flattering focal length of an 85mm portrait lens with the close-up capabilities of a 1:2 macro lens, this optic delivers exceptional sharpness, built-in optical stabilization, and a highly portable design at an accessible price point.
Key Features
- Dual-Purpose Portrait & Macro Design: Serves as a stunning mid-telephoto portrait lens that doubles as a high-performance macro lens for capturing intimate details.
- 0.5x Maximum Macro Magnification: Features a minimum focusing distance of 0.35m, allowing creators to shoot close-up subjects at half life-size (1:2 reproduction ratio).
- Up to 5 Stops of Optical Image Stabilization: Built-in optical IS counteracts camera shake by up to 5 stops, expanding to an incredible 8 stops of coordinated stabilization when paired with EOS R bodies featuring In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS).
- Bright f/2.0 Maximum Aperture: Offers great low-light performance and shallow depth-of-field control, isolating subjects beautifully against smooth backgrounds.
- Stepping Motor (STM) Autofocus: Utilizes a gear-type stepping motor to ensure smooth, quiet, and highly precise tracking, making it excellent for both video and still photography.
- Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) Element: Incorporates one UD glass element within its optical layout to minimize chromatic aberrations and color fringing for pristine clarity and color accuracy.
- Configurable Control Ring: Features a physical control ring on the lens barrel that allows direct, intuitive adjustment over exposure settings like ISO, aperture, shutter speed, or exposure compensation.
- 9-Blade Circular Aperture: Produces incredibly creamy, soft, and aesthetically pleasing background bokeh with natural, rounded out-of-focus highlights.
- Super Spectra Coating: Applied to individual glass elements to dramatically reduce ghosting and flare, maintaining rich contrast and color fidelity when shooting in bright or backlit environments.
- 12-Pin Electronic Communication: Ensures blazing-fast data transfer between the lens and camera body, optimizing peripheral illumination correction, distortion correction, and real-time digital lens enhancements.
