The Canon RF 135mm f/1.8 L IS USM combines a medium-telephoto focal length with an exceptionally bright maximum aperture, resulting in a compelling blend of outstanding sharpness and shallow depth of field, making it particularly suitable for portrait photography. This advantageous combination is enhanced by a sophisticated L-series optical design, durable and weather-sealed construction, as well as rapid autofocus and reliable image stabilization for user-friendly operation.
The notably bright f/1.8 maximum aperture provides significant control over depth of field for selective focus techniques and is also beneficial in low-light environments. Three ultra-low dispersion elements effectively manage various aberrations, ensuring high sharpness, clarity, and precise color reproduction. Additionally, both Air Sphere and Super Spectra Coatings enhance image quality by preserving high contrast and color fidelity while minimizing lens flare and ghosting in challenging lighting conditions. The rounded nine-blade diaphragm further contributes to a visually appealing bokeh effect.
- Nano USM delivers fast, accurate, and near silent autofocus performance to benefit both photo and video applications.
- Customizable Lens Function buttons on the barrel permit intuitive tactile control and rapid access to shooting settings.
- Benefitting handheld and monopod-based shooting, Optical Image Stabilization compensates for 5.5 stops of camera shake, or up to 8 stops if paired with in-body image stabilization, for sharper imagery.
- Weather-sealed design for reliable use in inclement conditions.
- Fluorine coating on front element helps repel moisture, dust, and fingerprints and is also easier to clean.
- Configurable Control Ring can be used to adjust a variety of exposure settings, including aperture, ISO, and exposure compensation.
