Canon has announced two new ultra-wide-angle L-series RF mount lenses for its EOS R system, expanding options for professional photographers and filmmakers working at extreme wide perspectives.
The RF7-14mm f/2.8-3.5L Fisheye STM is Canon’s first native RF mount fisheye zoom lens and the world’s first lens to offer a circular 190° angle of view. With a wider 7mm focal length on full-frame cameras, it captures more of the scene than the EF8-15mm f/4L Fisheye USM, enabling distinctive circular and diagonal fisheye effects. The lens features an f/2.8–3.5 aperture for improved low-light performance, an updated optical design for better aberration control, and weighs approximately 476g, making it lighter than its EF predecessor. It also supports 2D 180° VR image creation using Canon’s EOS VR Utility software and uses equidistant projection for more uniform image compression.
Alongside it, Canon introduced the RF14mm f/1.4L VCM, its widest and fastest non-fisheye RF prime lens to date. Weighing around 578g, it is lighter than the EF14mm f/2.8L II USM while offering a brighter f/1.4 aperture. Designed as a photo-video hybrid, it features a VCM motor, iris ring, reduced focus breathing, and specialized optical elements to minimize coma flare and colour fringing. A rear filter holder supports sheet-type filters.
Both lenses feature L-series dust and drip-resistant construction and advanced coatings to reduce flare and ghosting. The RF14mm f/1.4L VCM is priced at ₹2,19,995, while the RF7-14mm f/2.8-3.5L Fisheye STM costs ₹1,52,995.
