Features

  • New 50mm L-Series hybrid lens featuring an iris ring for manual iris control.
  • Nano USM is used for floating focus and a Voice Coil Motor (VCM) for rear focus, great for video.
  • L-Series level durability and weather-resistant construction for use in harsh environments helps ensure reliability and dependability.
  • Incredibly minimal focus breathing - within 2.5% of the entire range in the lens alone! Further electronic breathing correction brings it to within 1.0% of the entire range.
  • Air Sphere Coating (ASC) helps to significantly reduce lens ghosting and flare.

Description

The RF50mm F1.4 L VCM is part of the expanding Hybrid lens series, targeting a wide range of still-image and video shooters, with a combination of standard- angle coverage, a fast f/1.4 maximum aperture, and excellent optical design. On a full frame camera this lens gives you a Standard-angle look which has for decades been the most “all-purpose” focal length for photos and videos. On the video side, this lens really shines with a dedicated manual Iris ring, and a linear focus motor called a VCM (Voice Coil Motor) that is virtually silent. The VCM works in tandem with a Nano USM on the floating focus unit for incredibly fast autofocus. And finally, focus breathing is barely noticeable on this incredibly versatile lens.

  • Epic lens
Incredibly light, great for photo and video, incredible image quality and focuses instantly. Love the lens for portraits and general use. Can even be used for fast subjects like kids and dogs because the auto focus is the fastest I've ever seen.

  • My prefered 50mm
Doesn't quite match the 50mm f/1.2 in image quality, but the difference is not a deal breaker for me. The VCM focus instantly and is very quiet, but not completely silent. $1,000 less and is not a tank to carry around. Except for the slight difference in image quality, this is what the f/1.2 should've been. There are many photographers that prefers the f/1.2 own unique image quality. That's fine if you're willing to put up with the extra weight, loud motor, and an extra $1,000. ... show more

  • Good, fast normal lens for Canon RF mount
Good, sharp lens with minimal focus breathing. I won’t give it 5 stars though because of the reliance on a lens profile to correct distortion and vignetting, especially at that price. The optical formula should be better corrected.
