Capture distant subjects so close that they look like they’re about to burst out of the frame! The RF800mm f/11 IS STM brings the joy of super telephoto photography to budget-conscious enthusiast photographers, in a compact, lightweight form factor that is easy to carry around. Pair it with one of the RF extenders, and even the details of the moon will be within reach.
Love shooting sports, airplanes, wildlife or distant landscapes? The 800mm focal length lets you fill the frame with distant subjects using the full camera resolution—no more drastic cropping to get your ideal composition!
To get even closer, pair with Extender RF1.4x or Extender RF2x to extend reach to up to 1600mm.
To combat the camera shake that happens when shooting at ultra-long focal lengths, the RF800mm f/11 IS STM comes with a built-in Optical Image Stabilizer (Optical IS) that provides up to 4 shutter speed stops’ image stabilisation. This lets you shoot sharper shots, even by hand with a slower shutter speed in low light!
With its streamlined structure that uses an efficient Diffractive Optical (DO) lens, lightweight, high-strength plastic and a retractable design, the RF800mm f/11 IS STM weighs only around 1.26kg and is 28.2cm long when stored.
That’s far from the giant super telephoto you might have had in mind, and much easier to carry around!
