About this lens

Works with

  • Canon RF-mount full-frame mirrorless (R, RP, R3, R5, R5 II, R6, R6 II, R8, R1)
  • Canon RF-mount APS-C mirrorless (R7, R10, R50) - acts as ~56mm equivalent
  • Not compatible with Canon EF-mount DSLRs

Best for

A versatile affordable wide prime - fast enough for low-light, close-focus for macro-style detail shots (0.5x reproduction), and IS-stabilised for hand-held work. 35mm on RF full-frame is a classic documentary/street focal length; on RF APS-C (R7, R10, R50) it becomes a 56mm standard prime.

Frequently asked questions

Is it true 1:1 macro?

No - maximum magnification is 0.5x (half life-size). Good for detail shots and flowers but not true 1:1. For true 1:1 macro on RF consider the RF 85mm f/2 Macro IS STM or RF 100mm f/2.8L Macro IS USM (1.4x).

Does this lens have image stabilisation?

Yes - up to 5 stops.
