Canon RF 70-200mm F2.8L IS USM Canon RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS Lens
Additionally, Canon introduced two new lenses: the Canon RF 70-
200mm F2.8L IS USM Lens and the RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS.
The new Canon RF 70-200mm lens has a bright ƒ/2.8 aperture across the
zoom range. Other features include:
- Two Nano USM motors, providing an even greater level of high-speed
autofocus for still-image shooting and quiet and smooth autofocus for
video shooting. - A floating focus control that drives the two lens groups independently of
each other. - A customizable control ring that allows photographers to adjust exposure
compensation, shutter speed, aperture or ISO. - It's constructed with 17 lens elements in 13 groups, including two
aspherical lenses, one super UD lens and four UD lenses, to reduce
chromatic aberration. - The optical image stabilizer should provide five stops of compensation.
The new Canon RF 85mm F1.2L USM DS lens has a bright ƒ/1.2 aperture and
a minimum focusing distance of 2.79 feet. Other features include:
- A DS coating with a vapor-deposited coating technology that's applied to
the front and rear surfaces of a specific lens element inside the lens to
provide enhanced bokeh or beautifully blurred backgrounds. - A customizable control ring that allows photographers to adjust exposure
compensation, shutter speed, aperture or ISO. - Includes one aspheric lens and one UD lens, along with BR optics that
help to reduce chromatic aberration.
There was no availability or pricing for the new EOS-1D X Mark III DSLR. The
two lenses should be available now.
