Canon India Announces RF 20 RF 20mm F/1.4 L VCM

Canon has also expanded its RF Hybrid Primes line up with the RF 20 mm f/1.4 L VCM lens. Joining the 24 mm, 35 mm, and 50 mm f/1.4 lenses, this ultra-wide-angle lens offers smooth autofocus, minimal focus breathing, and a physical iris ring for video shooters. Weighing 519g, it has a 67 mm filter thread, a rear filter holder, and is dust-resistant. 

Designed for both stills and video, the lens features built-in focus breathing reduction for stable compositions, smooth subject tracking, and silent operation. Its high-thrust VCM ensures precise, rapid autofocus, while a clickless iris ring allows seamless aperture adjustments during filming. The lens shares consistent size, weight, and controls with Canon’s other f/1.4L VCM primes, reducing the need for rebalancing when swapping lenses.

Optically, the RF 20mm F1.4L VCM introduces BR optics to minimize chromatic aberration, along with aspherical elements that correct distortions like sagittal coma flare—perfect for astrophotography. ASC and SWC coatings reduce flare and ghosting, ensuring crisp, high-resolution images even in challenging lighting. With its outstanding image quality and future-proof design for 8K imaging, this lens is a must-have for professionals seeking both precision and versatility.

The Canon RF 20mm F/1.4 L VCM is priced at ₹1,58,995.
