Features:
1. Possess a 500mm super telephoto focal length and high image quality
RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM covers a wide zoom range from 100mm mid-telephoto focal length to 500mm super-telephoto focal length, and its high-quality performance is equivalent to or higher than EF100-400mm f/4.5-5.6L IS II USM , The telephoto end focal length has been extended to 500mm, and the total length is almost unchanged when installed in the camera. At the same time, when used with a lightweight micro-camera such as EOS R5, the weight of the Canon SLR system of the same level is reduced by about 14%2, which reduces the burden of long-term movement and shooting.
In order to meet the needs of photographers for longer focal length super telephoto in the fields of sports, wildlife, etc., it can be used in conjunction with the RF1.4× and RF2× teleconverters released together to achieve a focal length of up to 1000mm (RF100-500mm F4. 5-7.1 L IS USM can use RF extender at 300-500mm focal length). Extenders RF1.4× and RF2× can extend the focal length of the main lens to 1.4 times or 2 times while maintaining the high resolution of the picture. The built-in microprocessor of the extender can improve the focus accuracy and the reliability of high-speed autofocus, while increasing the telephoto distance while maintaining high-quality imaging performance. In addition, both extenders have a high-strength impact-proof, dust-proof and water-proof structure3.
Canon RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM relies on the advanced optical design of the RF system's large bayonet diameter and short rear focus distance, combined with Canon's multiple optical technologies, in the entire zoom range, from the center to the edge of the screen. Can obtain high-resolution excellent image quality performance. The lens uses 1 super UD (ultra-low dispersion) lens and 6 UD lenses, which can effectively correct chromatic aberrations and achieve high resolution and high contrast. The application of Canon ASC air ball coating technology significantly suppresses the occurrence of glare and ghosting. The lens uses 9 aperture blades to form an almost circular aperture, and the compression effect of super telephoto can bring a soft and beautiful background blur effect.
2. Equipped with IS image stabilizer to help clear and stable shooting
The RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens is equipped with an IS image stabilizer with up to 5 levels and 4 shake compensation effects, which provides reliable anti-shake protection for ultra-telephoto handheld shooting. When the lens is used in combination with EOS R5 or EOS R6 with body anti-shake, it can also perform more accurate detection and correction of shake information through the dual anti-shake function of the body × lens, and achieve the highest level of 6 when shooting still photos 5 Shake compensation effect, further enhance the anti-shake performance, some pictures that were difficult to shoot clearly in the past can be clearly frozen. When shooting short movies, the RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens works with the combined IS function of the EOS R series full-frame micro-camera's short-film digital 5-axis anti-shake, effectively suppressing large shakes during shooting. When the user is prone to jitters such as unstable posture or walking shooting, combined with the rotatable LCD monitor, the movie can still be taken comfortably.
The RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens is equipped with 3 IS anti-shake modes suitable for shooting static subjects, following and shooting moving subjects, and shooting irregularly moving subjects, which can be adapted to portraits, landscapes, car sports, and railway photography. , Intense sports events and other scenarios.
3. New dual Nano USM focus motors to achieve high-speed quiet and smooth focusing
RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM is equipped with dual Nano USM focus motors, and is used in conjunction with the full-pixel dual-core CMOS AF of the EOS R series full-frame micro-cameras to achieve high-speed, high-precision still image autofocus. In terms of movie shooting, the lens will track the subject quietly and smoothly, and users don’t have to worry about recording unnecessary focusing sounds in the movie.
In addition, dual Nano USM focus motors and electronic floating focus control can significantly shorten the focus distance and further expand the possibility of close-up shooting. The closest focusing distances of the new lens RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM at 100mm focal length and 500mm focal length are about 0.9m and 1.2m, respectively, and the corresponding maximum magnification is about 0.12 times and 0.33 times, which can easily take pictures. Shocking close-up photography.
4. Maintain the consistent good operability and reliability of the L-class lens
The white appearance of Canon RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens has a heat-insulating coating, which can control the temperature of the lens barrel and improve the user's comfort in summer. Taking into account the stability when fixed with a tripod, the lens uses a slightly larger tripod base than before, which can be quickly removed. In order to provide users with a more comfortable operating experience, the RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens is equipped with an adjustable damping zoom adjustment ring. The lens also has a highly customizable control ring. The user can control the aperture, shutter Quickly set and adjust common shooting parameters such as speed, ISO sensitivity and exposure compensation. In addition, the equipped hood provides a sliding window, users can easily adjust the polarization filter installed at the front without removing the hood, which greatly improves the convenience of operation.
The RF100-500mm F4.5-7.1 L IS USM lens also has the same durability as other L-class lenses. It has a dust-proof and water-repellent structure3. The front of the lens is covered with a hydrophobic and oil-repellent fluorine coating. Once the lens is exposed to water and oil The stains can be easily wiped off with a dry cloth. The lens filter specification is 77mm, the minimum lens overall length is about 207.6mm, the maximum diameter is about 93.8mm, and the weight is about 1370g (not including the tripod base).
Description:
