Canon RF 28-70mm F2.8 IS STM Lens
Product description
Key features
This compact general purpose zoom from Canon delivers a bright f/2.8 aperture across the 28-70mm focal range, making it easier to shoot in low light and to isolate subjects with shallow depth of field. The RF mount and a thoughtful retracting mechanism keep the lens short and lightweight, yet weather sealing provides protection in outdoor conditions. The 5.5 stop image stabiliser helps you capture steady stills and smooth video even when you are shooting handheld, while the UD and Aspheric elements safeguard image sharpness and minimise aberrations. A whisper quiet STM motor ensures smooth focus transitions for both stills and video, and you can tweak settings quickly via the control ring for shutter speed, aperture or ISO.
Designed for everyday portability, this lens weighs under 500 g and measures just 92.2 mm in length, making it a practical option for travel, street photography or on-the-go video work. The focus breathing correction helps maintain cinematic control when you shoot handheld or on a gimbal, and the autofocus remains accurate with reliable performance in a range of lighting conditions. In practice, the combination of speed, stabilisation and compact form makes it a strong all-rounder that you can rely on in a variety of scenarios.
