Explore the world of super-telephoto photography with the remarkably lightweight and versatile Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM lens. Designed for Canon’s full-frame EOS R mirrorless system, this lens packs an impressive zoom range into a compact and travel-friendly body, making it easier than ever to capture distant wildlife, sporting events, and family adventures. Its approachable design and powerful reach provide an excellent gateway for photographers looking to expand their creative possibilities without the bulk and weight of traditional telephoto lenses.
Despite its light weight, the RF 100-400mm is packed with advanced technology to ensure you get sharp, clear images. The Nano USM focus motor delivers high-speed, smooth, and near-silent autofocus, making it ideal for tracking fast-moving subjects and recording video without disruptive focusing noise. To combat camera shake at long focal lengths, a powerful 5.5-stop Optical Image Stabilizer provides exceptional handheld performance. When paired with an EOS R camera featuring In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS), this correction increases to 6 stops for even greater stability. A customizable Lens Control Ring also puts key settings like aperture, ISO, or exposure compensation right at your fingertips.
