Travel photography
Travel with a single zoom for space-saving flexibility. A versatile 28-70mm range is useful for many subjects, from big-sky landscapes to portraits, fine art and street photography.
Wedding photography
Work quickly and quietly in a variety of situations. The RF 28-70mm f/2L USM features an f/2 maximum aperture, letting you control shallow depth of field in portraits and capture ambience in low light.
Photojournalism
The zoom and focal length recomposes and reframes quickly to capture that decisive moment. Focus and shoot in low light, and let Canon’s L-series quality inspire confidence – even in bad weather.
Image quality that has to be seen to be believed
The RF 28-70mm f/2L USM has all the optical, mechanical and electronic advantages of the EOS R system. Achieve extraordinary image quality and expect very high sharpness with low levels of distortion.
Smooth, near silent autofocusing
Focus quickly and in near silence, thanks to an advanced ring-type USM AF motor. When combined with the EOS R system’s silent shooting technology, photographers can remain discreet.
Simply brilliant in low light
Experience faster shutter speeds and f/2 aperture that can freeze subject and camera movement. With a shallow depth of field, the RF 28-70mm f/2L USM is ideal for emphasising a pin-sharp subject.
Intuitive and seamless control
The RF 28-70mm f/2L USM features a customisable Lens Control Ring, which lets photographers respond instinctively to changing conditions by quickly adjusting a variety of settings including aperture, shutter speed, ISO and exposure compensation.
