Ultra Telephoto Reimagined
Weighing only at approximately 3 340g, the RF1200mm f/8L IS USM has revolutionised what a lens of this focal length could be. It is smaller and much lighter than its EF equivalent.
Unparalleled length with a distinctly compact and lightweight design, the Canon RF 1200mm f/8 L IS USM is a super-telephoto prime offering a premium mixture of optics quality, intuitive handling, and professional-grade durability.
As one of the longest focal lengths available, this lens excels in wildlife and sports applications, offering uniquely close-up views of distant subjects. Combined with responsive AF, apt image stabilization, and a surprisingly lightweight design, the 1200mm f/8 is a specialized lens with a versatile feature-set.
