Its constant f/2.8 aperture offers remarkable low-light performance and creative control, enabling beautiful background and foreground blur. Compact yet powerful, this lens is designed to fit seamlessly into your kit without weighing you down.

Portable and Convenient Design

Weighing just over one pound, this lens is built for portability. Its retractable design and compact focus elements make it a "take-anywhere" lens that fits easily in your bag. Despite its lightweight build, it delivers exceptional image quality, thanks to advanced electronic distortion correction and an innovative optical system.

Exceptional Optical Performance

The RF16-28mm F2.8 IS STM lens is crafted with four Ultra-low Dispersion (UD) elements and two glass-molded aspherical lenses. This sophisticated design minimizes chromatic aberrations, enhances sharpness, and ensures high-resolution performance across the entire zoom range. Borrowing dust- and weather-resistant construction from Canon’s L-series, this lens is built to withstand challenging shooting conditions.

Perfect for Video and Vlogging

With a quiet leadscrew-type STM motor, the lens delivers smooth and silent autofocus, making it perfect for video production and vlogging. The versatile 16-28mm zoom range is ideal for wide-angle shots, whether you're capturing stunning landscapes or creating dynamic street videos. Focus breathing is well controlled, ensuring professional-quality results in every frame.

Combining 5.5 stops of in-lens image stabilization with in-body stabilization (when paired with compatible cameras), this lens achieves up to 8 stops of shake correction. Whether shooting handheld in low light or on uneven terrain, you can rely on this stabilization system for sharp, steady shots.

Rich, Beautiful Bokeh

The constant f/2.8 aperture delivers creamy, natural bokeh at any focal length, allowing you to isolate your subject with ease. This wide aperture also enables faster shutter speeds, reducing motion blur and helping you capture crisp, clear images in challenging lighting.
