The RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM is Canon’s first full-frame f/2.8 constant aperture ultra-wide-angle zoom lens to be equipped with image stabilisation (IS). Location: Glacier National Park, Montana, USAĮven at 15mm, details were sharp from corner-to-corner with practically no visible barrel distortion.

Straight out of camera, the colours and contrast seemed to be the same as the EF counterpart, but the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM had better performance against ghosting and flaring when shooting towards the sun.ĮOS R/ RF15-35mm f/2.8 IS USM/ FL: 15mm/ Manual exposure (f/11, 1/20 sec)/ ISO 200 There was also less chromatic aberration and distortion even at the wide-angle end. I was pleasantly surprised to find that despite the extra 1mm in focal length coverage, the images I shot on the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM were sharper at the corners than the EF16-35mm f/2.8L III USM. The difference between 15mm and 16mm can be enough to change the impact of a composition. It's not just about how much you can fit into the frame. 15mm was perfect for capturing this intriguing foreground subject and the iconic mountain, Stortinden, in the background perfectly in the same frame. The ultra-wide-angle perspective at 15mm conveys the sense of distance from the ice bubbles in the foreground to the mountains all the way at the back.ĮOS R/ RF15-35mm f/2.8 IS USM/ FL: 15mm/ Manual exposure (f/8, 1/13 sec)/ ISO 200Ī “hidden” waterfall under the ice.

Using Lens Filters: 2 Techniques from Professional PhotographersĮOS R/ RF15-35mm f/2.8 IS USM/ FL: 15mm/ Manual exposure (f/11, 1/4 sec)/ ISO 200 Lens FAQ #5: What are the Pros and Cons of an ND Filter? And the best thing is, you can use normal 82mm screw-in filters with the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM to expand the possibilities of photographic expression.įind out more about how filters can change your shots here: In landscape photography, an extra 1mm can be a big deal: It translates to a 4°wider angle-of-view, which makes a huge difference in showing a sense of scale. This makes a significant difference on long treks and when shooting on challenging terrain. However, that’s the result of the increased focal range and the addition of built-in IS, and it is more than negated by the difference in size between the EOS R and the EOS 5D Mark IV.Īs the image above shows, the EOS R + RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM is approximately 180g lighter and 17cm shorter than the EOS 5D Mark IV + EF16-35mm f/2.8L III USM pairing. If you look at the lenses alone, the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM weighs around 50g more than the EF16-35mm f/2.8L III USM. When you hold the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM mounted onto the EOS R in your hands, one difference that is immediately apparent is the difference in size and weight:
He shares with us why he thinks the lens is “UWA-wesome”.
Travel and landscape photographer Edwin Martinez tested the lens in a variety of terrains from dusty Mount Bromo in Indonesia and the hot springs of North American national parks in autumn to the freezing, -44☌ cold in the Canadian Rockies in winter. For landscape photographers using the EOS R system, the RF15-35mm f/2.8L IS USM is a much-anticipated native ultra-wide-angle (UWA) lens for the RF mount.
