Detailed Description

Offering a versatile zoom range in a lightweight and portable design, the Canon RF-S 55-210mm f/5-7.1 IS STM Lens is well-suited for sports and wildlife applications. Providing an 88-336mm equivalent focal length range, this sleek telephoto zoom lens is designed for APS-C-format EOS R-series mirrorless cameras. The lens also offers a minimum focusing distance of 2.3′ for working with close-up subjects. Complementing the optical design and telephoto reach, an Optical Image Stabilizer compensates for up to 4.5 stops of camera shake to benefit handheld shooting with slower shutter speeds. Additionally, an STM stepping motor is also featured, which produces fast, smooth, and near-silent autofocus performance to support both stills and video recording applications.

  • Telephoto zoom lens for RF-mount APS-C format mirrorless cameras provides an 88-336mm equivalent focal length range.
  • Optical Image Stabilizer technology compensates for up to 4.5 stops of camera shake to better enable taking sharp handheld photos in difficult lighting conditions. When paired with EOS R-series cameras featuring an In-Body Image Stabilizer (IBIS), up to 7 stops of shake correction are provided.
  • STM stepping motor offers fast, quiet, smooth, and accurate autofocus performance that is ideal for video recording as well as still shooting.
  • Two Ultra-Low Dispersion elements and a Super Spectra Coating minimize ghosting and flare.
  • Minimum focusing distance of 28.7″ for working with close-up subjects.
  • Compact and lightweight lens weighs just 9.5 oz.

Lightweight and Portable

Reach further

Take stunning pictures of subjects that are too far away to approach.

Compression effect

Create the illusion that the foreground and background subjects are closer together than they actually are.

Bokeh

When the focal length is increased, both the background and the foreground are blurred more noticeably to give you beautiful bokeh.

Get Closer

Other than reaching further, this telephoto lens allows you to get up close too! At the maximum focal length, the RF-S55-210mm f/5-7.1 IS STM provides a magnification of up to 0.28x*, bringing your subject closer to you.

*minimum focusing distance of 0.73m

Image Stabilisation

The lens natively provides up to 4.5 stops of image stabilisation. With a compatible camera, image stabilisation can even go as high as 7.0 stops.

This allows you to shoot handheld in low light with shutter speeds slower than you usually could.

APS-C and Full-frame

The RF-S55-210mm f/5-7.1 IS STM may be used with both EOS R APS-C and EOS R full-frame* cameras. Hence, this lens is a great option for any existing EOS R system user who wants to expand their lens line-up to capture more variety of images.

The effective focal length ranges from 88mm to 336mm when used with both APS-C and full-frame cameras.

*Reduced megapixel count due to cropping by a factor of 1.6

Focus Breathing Correction

Focus breathing is a common problem that occurs as a result of changes to the lens’s focusing distance when switching focus between subjects, which can be distracting during video recording. The RF-S55-210mm f/5-7.1 IS STM compensates for the change in field of view as the focus point is changed, resulting in seamless video recording.

STM

Canon’s unique leadscrew-type stepping motor (STM) keeps the autofocus (AF) running smoothly and quietly even when filming.

Dual Function Ring

Canon’s signature knurled control ring functions as both a focus and exposure dial.

UD Lenses

This lens has two single Ultra-Low Dispersion (UD) lens elements with low refraction and low dispersion. This reduces axial and magnetic chromatic aberrations to improve image quality.
