Canon presents the new RF 75-300mm F4-5.6: a compact, light and affordable telephoto zoom lens that is perfect for those who want to start capturing sports, animals or nature from a distance. Designed for Canon EOS R System cameras, the lens helps users get closer to subjects without having to move.
With the wide zoom range of 75 to 300 mm you can easily switch from an overview to a close-up. Whether you want to photograph birds without disturbing them, or capture your child from the sidelines during a football match: this lens makes it possible. And thanks to its smart design, it is quick to operate – the large zoom ring only needs a quarter turn to go through the entire zoom range.
This lens also performs well up close: at the longest setting (300 mm) you can focus from 1.5 meters, so that you get beautiful details in the image - ideal for portraits of people and animals.
The powerful zoom and large seven-blade aperture provide excellent separation between a sharp subject and a blurred background for a refined display.
This classic entry-level full-frame 75-300mm lens is suitable for any camera with Canon's RF mount. In combination with an APS-C body such as the EOS R100 this lens delivers an even more powerful effective range of 120-480mm to bring distant subjects even closer.
And with a weight of only 507 grams and a length of 146.1 mm, it fits easily in your camera bag, wherever you go.
