Super-telephoto shooting made more accessible

The RF 800mm f/11 IS STM has been designed to make super-telephoto shooting more accessible and affordable for the EOS R System Cameras. Delivering high image quality in a compact design, it provides the ability to photograph closer to subjects such as wildlife and sport with photogenic image expression from distance.

  • Compact and lightweight

    Weighing in at just 1,260g, the RF 800mm f/11 IS STM can be easily taken to outdoor locations and handheld without a tripod. The retractable structure provides unprecedented mobility and allows the lens to be stored compactly.

  • Capture sharp images with powerful Image Stabilizer

    The 4-stop Image Stabilizer reduces camera shake in super-telephoto shooting and allows you to shoot crisp images even with hand-held shooting.

Fast response to movement with high-speed Auto Focus

“…[RF 800mm f/11 IS STM lens] could also be attractive to some sports photographers, particularly those who shoot with long distances to their subjects (sailing comes immediately to mind). Plane spotters could also find this lens useful as it’s light enough to use hand-held at air shows and when photographing aerobatics. It’s also great for taking photographs of the moon…”
