Canon RF RF70-200mm F2.8 L IS USM Z 200mm

84.8 Wildlife/Sports Score
70-200mm 22 Canon RF IS Weather Sealed
Why we recommend this

The internal zooming f/2.8 design with Nano USM motors delivers fast, quiet autofocus and 5.5-stop stabilization for sharp stills and smooth video. An iris ring for manual aperture control, focus breathing suppression, and compatibility with the optional Power Zoom Adapter PZ-E2 elevate its video-centric flexibility and weather-sealed L-series durability. This lens suits hybrid shooters capturing street photography, wildlife, and sports who need a constant-aperture telephoto that excels in both photo and run-and-gun video work.
