Description

The Canon RF 100-300mm F2.8 L IS USM is a super telephoto zoom lens for Canon's RF mount camera system. This lens will appeal to professionals and enthusiasts who specialise in sports photography – from indoor sports to motorsports. The 100-300 weighs  2.59kg, has a minimum focusing distance of 1.8m with a 0.16x maximum magnification.

This lens has a new Image Stabilizer mechanism, based on the IS systems found in Canon’s L-series super telephoto lenses, capable of 5.5 stops of stabilisation, which increases to 6 stops when combined with the in-body image stabilisation.

Fully compatible with Canon's RF extenders, the RF 1.4x extender can be used throughout the zoom range to produce a 140-420mm F4 lens, while the RF 2x extender can be used to produce a 200-600mm F5.6 lens.
