Get closer, with images larger than life - Introducing the RF 100MM F2.8L MACRO IS USM lens
Рет қаралды 131,323
3 жыл бұрынWatch Oliver Wright, professional macro photographer, test the new RF 100mm F2.8L MACRO IS USM. It's a professional macro lens with class-leading 1.4x magnification and a variable Spherical Aberration Control to adjust Bokeh. It’s a superb L-series lens for close focus and portrait work, inspiring creativity.
Spherical Aberration Control Ring
The RF 100mm F2.8L MACRO IS USM features a Spherical Aberration (SA) Control mechanism to specify the look of out of focus bokeh areas, both in front and behind the subject and produces a soft-focus effect on the subject itself. An additional control ring on the lens is used to govern an electronic cam that actuates the focusing and floating lens groups independently by using two Nano USMs to change their location from infinity to close-up and change spherical aberration. This alters the bokeh for the desired effect.
Incredible 1.4x magnification
Ideal for handheld macro, the lens gets closer than ever before while a flattering focal length of 100mm makes it ideal for portraits.
Adjust soft focus and bokeh
A variable Spherical Aberration Control ring can be used to adjust the look of the bokeh,
while applying a flattering soft focus effect.
Outstanding image quality
A 9-blade iris and fast f/2.8 maximum aperture offer great creative opportunities and stunning image quality, even in low light.
Advanced stabilisation
Designed for assured handheld shooting, a Hybrid Image Stabilizer gives great confidence with up to 5-stops* of compensation.
*At closer focusing distances, the image stabilisation effect reduces.
Fast, silent, precise AF
Dual Nano USM motors bring new levels of rapid and silent focusing, perfect for stills or video. The lens design suppresses focus breathing too, ensuring consistency.
No compromise construction
This L-series lens features weather-sealing and a fluorine coating on the outer lens element to guard against dust and water.

This was an inspiring video. I'm usually bored with corporate format product releases, but this was really well done and sells the product without being in your face about it. The photographer's background and lifestyle changes redirected his creativity and passion. And kudos to Oliver Wright for the tasteful imagery! Now I want the lens too! Time to sell my EF 100L Macro...

Real shame about focus shift. I was really planning to get this one since I was more open to the use of the SA control for portraiture than most online reviewers, but since I mainly want to shoot small animals, making use of the eye AF is a priority for me. Hopefully you get to apply the SA control for slightly wider lenses later on, when super tight focus at higher apertures isn't an issue... In fact, I for one would be incredibly interested if SA was added to, say, the inevitable RF 24-70 f/2.8 II?

What an interesting way of shooting macro. I have thought that people use a flash for this in 95% of cases. Well diffused flash gives so many benefits.
@Sam1986E 3 жыл бұрын
With 8 stops of stabilization you can set your shutter to 0.5 seconds and still get sharp images.. at 0.5 seconds and 400 iso you will not really need a light source for many things unless its pitch dark! Canon is crushing it with the R5!
@tkermi 3 жыл бұрын
@@Sam1986E Yes, but I never photograph dead insects and like to freeze their poses when they are active (they often look boring when in dormant/rest state). So without a flash, for me using anything under 1/100s isn't possible in 99% of cases and under 1/200s in 85% of cases. And I would often need 1/1000s-1/2500s. But with flash it provides most of the lighting/freezes the subject's motion. So I actually mostly use longer exposures in 1/30s-1/125s range to get nice background/bokeh (not just dark like often with a flash if a fast shutter speed is used).

Is there any difference in quality between the 100mm f2.8 EF L Lens and this one? Many still use DSLRs, so for them, EF lenses are number one choice, Also , if I am not wrong, one can use an EF lens with a Canon adapter to a R series Mirrorless camera body. But can a mirrorless lens like this be used on a DSLR body?

@@linusfotograf True, it's just that I compare this type of lense to Laowa 100mm f/2.8 2x. It's so good and only $450 (though QC/durability isn't as good as with Canon L-series). So I often found it not so tempting to pay many times more if the picture quality is same or worse. I like to use a dedicated portrait lens so I don't use AF with this type of lens and have no need for IS (I freeze the movement with flash and don't take videos). But the price of this Canon lens isn't too bad at all - so if it's APO (with no/very minimal LOCA), like Laowa, I'm interested in buying it.
