The Canon RF 100-400mm f/5.6-8 IS USM is a versatile telephoto zoom lens designed for Canon’s full-frame RF-mount mirrorless cameras. Despite its compact and lightweight build, it offers an impressive 4x zoom range, making it suitable for wildlife, sports, and outdoor photography. The lens features a variable aperture of f/5.6-8, which helps maintain a relatively small form factor. It includes a powerful 5.5-stop optical image stabilization system, which can reach up to 6 stops when paired with a body featuring In-Body Image Stabilization (IBIS), greatly enhancing handheld shooting performance.
The RF 100-400mm uses Canon’s fast and quiet Nano USM autofocus motor, making it well-suited for both stills and video work. The optical design includes an Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) element to minimize chromatic aberration and improve sharpness across the frame. Additionally, it supports Canon’s RF 1.4x and 2x teleconverters, allowing photographers to extend the reach even further while maintaining autofocus. With its affordability, portability, and performance, this lens is an excellent option for hobbyists and enthusiasts looking to explore the long end of the zoom range without the bulk of professional super-telephoto glass.
