Product Information

Full details

The Canon RF 28mm F2.8 STM Lens is a compact, lightweight prime lens ideal for travel, street photography, and everyday use, perfect for Canon MILC cameras. Its fast f/2.8 aperture and STM motor offer excellent performance for both stills and video, with quiet autofocus and smooth transitions. However, note that it does not have image stabilization, so steady hands or faster shutter speeds are required in low light conditions. The combined focus and control ring allows for easy adjustments on the go.
