About this item

Highlights

  • With a tactile, easily distinguished surface and a clicking mechanism that provides tangible feedback for confident use while looking through the viewfinder, the control ring adds an outstanding connection to any shooting scenario.
  • For photographers and moviemakers who would prefer a silent control ring, the clicking mechanism can be removed at a Canon Factory Service Center location for a fee.
  • Compatible with optional Canon Extenders RF1.4x and RF2xTo help get you even closer to the subject, attach the compatible optional Canon RF extenders to the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM and get the equivalent of 560mm focal length coverage with the Extender RF1.4x, or 800mm using the Extender RF2x.
  • In fact, the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM is the first non-L-series Canon lens with tele extender compatibility, helping transform the lens into an incredibly powerful telephoto combination, with relatively modest additional size and weight.
  • This added flexibility and versatility helps make the RF100-400mm F5.6-8 IS USM an amazing option for nature photography and more.

Description

Compact, lightweight, and high-image quality RF telephoto zoom lens, with a versatile zoom range of 100-400mmThe travel-friendly size and weight (similar in size to the EF 70-300mm F4.5-5.6 IS II USM lens but a bit lighter) of this lens, makes it easier for it to be attached with a camera around your neck while walking around for an extended time. This lens supports Full-Frame format coverage. Because RF lenses are designed specifically for the RF Mount found on EOS R series cameras, the lens and camera combine to share Image Stabilization data, helping to dramatically reduce the effect of camera shake that can occur when working handheld..

stunning value

have had for 2 years, tested this against the 100-500 and the images were the same quality. liked the 22oz vs 36oz, smaller and faster to use.

All worth it

It works perfectly with our R8 and, as expected, is much better than the EF-S 55 - 250mm on our EF cameras. We may want to try the RF 800mm later.

This is a Great Lens

I am getting great results with and without the 2x extender. The lens is light enough for off-hand shooting, but go with support for that big reach. I like that I can get full throw from 100 to 400 with just a quarter turn of the barrel to get that perfect frame without mucking my focus or aim.

Lightweight, Inexpensive, but VERY SLOW!

A very good lens, especially for its pretty inexpensive, light weight, focus is fast. But oh that f/11 @400mm is so slow! I don't know if I can get 'use' to having to really turn up the ISO to get fast enough shutter to freeze motion of animals and birds. I almost gave it 3 stars.

Good lens for the price but quality suffers

This is a great lens for the price. Light weight, compact, great for walking around. I used it with my Canon RP body, which was a nice all around set up. The quality of images, however, is not as good as my L series lenses, especially at the 400mm range. I returned the lens and opted for the 100-500mm.

The best lens you can have is the one that is with you

The best lens you can have is the one you have with you when you want to take a picture! Because of the compact size and low weight of this lens, you are likely to have it along on your nature hikes and adventures. Of course it would be worthless if it did not perform optically/photographically - have no fear, it performs very well! Very quick and silent auto focus, smooth zoom, and efficient vibration reduction. It has become my got to lens, or better said, my "take with" lens!

Great lens for the price!

This is a very flexible lens, with a decent focus speed and reasonably quiet. It's a touch on the slow side, but for the cost involved that's to be expected. Image quality is very good, takes full advantage of the R5 45MP sensor. It's nice to have the control ring on these new RF lenses!

NOT a DSLR lens!!

thanks for making me waste my time and money buying this MIRRORLESS camera lens that you have listed in the DSLR category. Please fix your website and maybe not be so vague about what cameras this works with!

Fantastic Value

This is my favorite telephoto lens hands down. It represents fantastic value for camera lenses. I use this lens most often during the early evening or during the day. At periods around sunset you'll find that ISO needs to be increased. The 'slow' F-stop is usually a non-issue. Given the light weight of the lens and long zoom, it has become one of my favorites.

Good quality lens

I’ve had the RF 100-400 for 3 months now. It’s one of my favorite lenses. I use it on my Canon RP during daytime walks. This is a hobby of mine. I like capturing images of birds, butterflies, flowers, and landscapes. The autofocus is solid. I don’t have a lens hood or an nd filter yet I just shoot the lens s is. It feels nice and solid. I like the control ring. Very enjoyable.

Great Lens

Great lens for the price, feels solid handling it and it's lightweight. The size of the lens as well makes it easy to travel with. I use this lens for aviation and sports photography so the fast auto focusing is really nice, especially with faster moving action.

Great telephoto lens for a great price

I'm using the lens for travel photography, sports photography and sports video with an R6. It is fantastic for the price. Focus is sharp and image quality is great. The small size and light weight makes it a good fit for travelers who don't like to cary a large camera bag.

Get What You Pay For

The lens is light weight and does not need a tripod-ring. It is well made and feels solid in the hands. When there is plenty of light or sunshine the lens performs pretty well. I have used this lens for a few days now shooting my grandsons games and birds in the backyard this weekend and I am not very impressed. Even when I got a keeper, it was still vaguely out of focus or just not crisp. I use an R6. When shooting flagfooball yesterday my keeper ratio was terrible; something as low as 2 in ten were keepers. When it did miss focus, you could not determine where the camera was aiming; nothing was in focus. I was shooting handheld and it was a pretty bright day so there should have been plenty of sunshine. I also tested in lower light conditions, just overcast. It was hit or miss in this situation. I also found it slow to focus and especially in low light.
