Canon expands RF Mount offering with six new lenses for EOS R System

February 13, 2019

Built from the ground up, the EOS R System and RF Mount takes the heritage of the existing EOS System to new heights, offering even greater levels of performance, lens design possibilities and creative flexibility.


Launched in September 2018, the RF lens mount enables a radical new optical design, allowing large lens elements to be placed as near to the sensor as possible, allowing light to hit the sensor straight on. The RF Mount enhances communication and power transmission between the lens and camera body, as well as helping to achieve the world’s fastest autofocus speed for a full frame mirrorless camera system.


The mount’s short back focus and wide 54mm mount diameter has made it possible for Canon optical engineers to have unprecedented freedom to create a new generation of optics. The result is an ideal balance between size reduction, high image quality and high-spec performance.


Six full-frame RF lenses are currently in development, suiting the needs of every user from advanced amateurs, to professional photographers and videographers. Building on Canon’s optical lens heritage, this range of lenses will push forward the frontiers of creative capture thanks to the new, cutting-edge optics and advanced image processing for both stills and video
